CRITIQUE, APHORISM, PERFORMANCE AND TRANSFORMATION IN THEODOR ADORNO’S MINIMA MORALIA

Resumo

The reflections of the aphorisms of Minima Moralia may often seem opaque or obscure, appearing to take indirect routes in their investigations. The objective of this article is to outline an interpretation of this way of proceeding by highlighting how such textual elaboration is entangled with particular critical intentions. Crucially, by means of an in-depth analysis of aphorism 110, “Constanze”, it shall seek to indicate how the aphorism is structured in a way so that it can be performed by the reader in a form of experience concretely different from everyday life experience. This should allow one to grasp the latter through the former in a transformative way, constituting a form of critique both practical and theoretical at once.
