Theodor W. Adorno was one of the founders of the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory. He is the coauthor (with Max Horkheimer) of Dialectic of Enlightenment, and the author of Negative Dialectics, Aesthetic Theory, and Beethoven: The Philosophy of Music (Stanford, 1998).

Reviews

"The publication of the collection of musical essays in Sound Figures is particularly important for the establishment of a more sensitive reception of the rich thought of Adorno. Here we have a very good translation of Adorno's texts..." - Philosophy in Review
