Minima Moralia
Book • 2020
Minima Moralia is a philosophical masterpiece written by Theodor W. Adorno between 1944 and 1947.
The book consists of 153 aphorisms and short essays that reflect on the nature of modern life, particularly under the conditions of late capitalism.
Adorno critiques the alienation, conformity, and loss of individuality in modern society, arguing that the current societal conditions make it impossible to lead a genuine, fulfilling life.
He explores themes such as the commodification of culture, the decline of critical thinking, and the erosion of personal relationships.
The book is a critical examination of mid-20th century society, highlighting the malign effects of capitalism and the mechanisms of domination that underpin modern culture.
