Description
Against Epistemology: A Metacritique by Theodor W. Adorno This influential work by Theodor W. Adorno anticipates many key themes in contemporary philosophy, including the critique of foundationalism and idealism, and the decline of epistemology. Written as a critique of Husserl's phenomenology, Against Epistemology offers a broader critique of epistemology itself. Adorno's manuscript, originally written in Oxford between 1934-37, was later reworked in Frankfurt in 1955-56. The result is a powerful text that remains one of the most significant critiques of Husserl's work ever written. This metacritique blends analysis of Husserl's phenomenology with an internal critique of its underlying tensions and contradictions. A thought-provoking and influential work, Against Epistemology continues to be relevant in contemporary philosophical debates.
