This one-day conference will explore the broad spectrum of thought that influenced Adorno\u00a0and, in turn, the impact his work\u00a0has\u00a0had on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.<\/p>\n<p>While Adorno was manifestly influenced by Marx, Hegel, Kant and Nietzsche, his debt to others\u2013among them philosophers, sociologists, musicians and writers\u2013is equally as significant. Exploring the field of influence in the widest possible sense, this conference will also encourage speculative correspondences,\u00a0inviting delegates to consider topics\u00a0such as the way early modern thinkers (for instance Montaigne and Shakespeare) prefigure Adorno\u2019s work,\u00a0and Adorno\u2019s engagement with classical thought.<\/p>\n<p>Despite postmodernism\u2019s backlash to Adorno\u2019s apparent\u00a0elitism and modernist concerns, the overwhelming impact his work has had on the social sciences and arts testifies to his continued relevance in contemporary thought. This conference aims to fathom what Adorno means today and how his insights have endured.<\/p>\n<p>We invite abstracts for papers of twenty minutes duration from across academic disciplines. We particularly welcome proposals from early career academics and graduate students.
