Abstract

Few are the comments on the Adornian “Aesthetic Theory” that are objective enough to get to the point, no matter how painful it might be. Even the most well intended often tend to a certain aestheticism by at tributing the negativity of the work of art exclusively to its own medium. The weaving of the plot – which is vital to every work of art especially after Auschwitz and which is made present between expression,pain and death, as well as the negativity brought by them – is underestimated. And this is what may be emblematical in Christoph Menke ́s interpretation.
