Jameson

[filipe ceppas]

Dear Claus, 

I received my own msg and I have two brief corrections to make: the name is
Dubiel, and the "bad" of his intepretation is not about the strutucture of
the self-critique he seems to recognize on Adorno thought, an interpretation
which I know only throught Habermas' Philosophical Discourse of Modernity
and other second hands. So, I can say little about it. The "bad" is about
the kind of conclusions Habermas try to establish from it. Not long ago I
start to read again Knowledge and Interest and I realized that the
linguistic-epistemological nature of Habermas work seems to put him, since
the begining, very far away from the central concerns of Adorno's thought,
althought Habermas have some good texts on Adorno also (I'm thinking on a
text he wright in tribute of Adorno after his death, for example). But I
don't know very well Habermas neither, so maybe someone could talk more and
better about it.

Best wishes,

Filipe.
