“But if the reproach is not a trivial one – something that would be the case if one argued for the aestheticality of Adorno’s thought simply by denying validity to everything else he ever touched on – then it draws its force from a separation between abstract thinking and ‘mere’ aesthetic representation which must be argued as such (and is, for example, superseded in poststructuralism).”
