Over the past couple of days we have been talking about Adorno and Horkheimer, and I stumbled across this website that I think does a really good job in summarizing a lot of their ideas and believes they had about mass culture and it's effects on society here is the link: http://themaxklinger.wordpress.com/2012/11/27/a-summary-of-adorno-and-horkheimers-slightly-interesting-and-staggeringly-pretentious-views-on-art/


I really liked the article I thought it did a good job in describing what Adorno and Horkheimer stressed the most and that is their deep discomfort with the modern capitalist society, and how if we want to be free from it and achieve our full potential as human beings we need to overthrow it.  Anyway it was a great summary, check it out!
