If "All reification is forgetting," as critical theorists Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer wrote in the Dialectic of Enlightenment, then the task of critical theory, according to Ludovisi (John Cabot U., Italy), becomes the remembrance of the notyetexisting or "nostalgia for a redeemed future." This project of the early critical theorists remains relevant today, or so Ludovisi and the other contributors seek to demonstrate in this collection of 19 papers, which address theoretical issues in Adorno such as domination, subjectivity, criticism, normativity, autonomy, metaphysics, and political environment; critical theory's approaches to practical issues such as technology, immigration, constitutions, antiSemitism, the Holocaust, and technocratization; and aspects of the aesthetics of Walter Benjamin and Adorno, including "Hamlet's melancholy," "the afterlife of an artwork," allegory, autonomy, and emancipation.
