To say themes of redemption in later Adorno (and Horkheimer) are 'just a metaphor' is to be in some sort of intellectual denial. Certainly metaphor is there....but "just" a metaphor?

Not sure why? Recognizing the ironic "suffusion" of theology in a supposedly strictly post-metaphysical materialist critical philosophy only adds to the richness IMO. Your 'denial' also overlooks the exemplary Jewishness of so many extraordinary contributors to the critical-emancipatory project - Marx among others, of course. Let's face it, toward the end, Derrida went the same way ;-). Anyway, c'est la vie.
