title = "Adorno and Marx",
abstract = "This essay reconstructs the place of Marx{\textquoteleft}s thought within Adorno{\textquoteleft}s writings from his 1931 inaugural lecture to his famous 1962 seminar on Marx. It focuses on three areas: the critique and transformation of philosophy; the sociology of the commodification of art; and the social ontology of the objectivity of illusions, derived from the critique of political economy. Adorno, it argues, ended his academic life significantly more of a Marxist than he had entered it, leaving a legacy that was distinctive both for its dialectical appropriation of Marx{\textquoteleft}s critique - and suspended supersession - of philosophy and for its philosophical interpretation of Marx{\textquoteleft}s critique of political economy.",
