«Actualidad en la filosofía» is the philosophical essay by Theodor W. Adorno, published in 1994 by FisicalBook in hardback (204 pages, in Spanish).
Collects two early texts by Adorno, «Actualidad de la filosofía» and «La idea de la historia natural», the seed of Negative Dialectics and Aesthetic Theory. Against neo-Kantianism, phenomenology, Heidegger and logical positivism, it proposes a philosophy attentive to the fragment where nature and history interlock. Includes «Sobre la relación entre sociología y psicología», against psychoanalytic social psychology.
Part of the Grandes Obras del Pensamiento collection. The introduction is by Antonio Aguilera, full professor of philosophy at the University of Barcelona.
Theodor W. Adorno was a German philosopher, cultural, and music critic. He was a leading member of the Frankfurt School of critical theory, whose work has come to be associated with thinkers such as Ernst Bloch, Walter Benjamin, Max Horkheimer, Erich Fromm, and Herbert Marcuse, for whom the works of Sigmund Freud, Karl Marx, and G. W. F. Hegel were essential to a critique of modern society. As a critic of both fascism and what he called the culture industry, his writings—such as Dialectic of Enlightenment (1947), Minima Moralia (1951), and Negative Dialectics (1966)—strongly influenced the European New Left.
