ITEM OVERVIEW
A welcome reprint of this classic of social and cultural theory. A collection of some of his finest essays, offering an unparalleled insight into his thoughts on culture. Adorno argues that the culture industry commodified and standardized all art. In turn, this suffocated individuality and destroyed critical thinking. An unrivaled indictment of the banality of mass culture, from a man 50 years ahead of his time.
