Arendt und Adorno

Any examination of the affinities between the thoughts of Theodor Adorno and Hannah Arendt is stymied by the personal hostility which Arendt, in particular, bore towards Adorno. Nevertheless, through a close examination of Adorno 's "The Actuality of Philosophy" (1931) and Hannah Arendt's "What is Existenz Philosophy?" (1946), this essay shows that they formulated a remarkably similar critique of the philosophy of their times including that of Martin Heidegger for searching after 'false universals.' Both are deeply influenced by Walter Benjamin's method of developing 'crystalline elements,' and 'fragments' and 'images.' For Arendt, honest thinking can only be accomplished in 'fragments;' for Adorno, thinking must resist the temptation to overpower the object, letting it instead appear and assert itself against the epistemic imperialism of subjectivity. Both turn to Kant's Critique of Judgment for an elucidation of a cognitive approach that would lead beyond the pitfalls of 'false universale.'
