Minima Moralia: Reflections from Damaged Life (Minima Moralia)

This is the first Russian-language edition of a book by the eminent 20th-century German thinker Theodor Adorno (1903–1969), written in exile during and immediately following World War II. Entitled by analogy with Aristotle's Magna Moria (Great Ethics), this book is not a systematic philosophical work but a collection of sharply critical fragments, both in content and form, reflecting Adorno's bleak view of late-capitalist society, in which human experience fragments, disintegrates, and loses all sense of direction.
