The linguistic turn in critical theory has been routinely justified
with the claim that Adorno's philosophy is trapped within the
limits of consciousness philosophy. Yet Adorno's own philosophy of
language has not yet been fully and systematically examined in its
own right. Philip Hogh argues that it was in fact the linguistic
turn in critical theory that prevented a thorough analysis of
Adorno's philosophy of language. Here he reconstructs Adorno's
philosophy of language and presents it as a coherent theory that
demands to be understood as an important contribution to
contemporary linguistic philosophy. By analysing all the key
concepts in Adorno's thought (subjectivity, epistemology, social
theory and aesthetics), and comparing them to Robert Brandom's
material inferentialism, John McDowell's theory of conceptual
experience and Jurgen Habermas' theory of communicative action,
this book presents Adorno's theory as an important contribution to
contemporary philosophy of language in its own right.
