Especially significant is Adorno's \"dialectical portrait\" of Stravinsky, in which Adorno both reconsiders and refines his damning indictment of the composer in \u003ci\u003ePhilosophy on Modern Music\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout, Adorno is sustained by the conviction that music is supremely human because it is capable of communicating inhumanity while resisting it. His belief in the benevolent and transformative power of music reverberates throughout these writings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47597553484012,"sku":"9781844677924","price":64.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781844677924-quasi-una-fantasia.jpg?v=1777957401","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/quasi-una-fantasia-by-theodor-adorno-9781844677924","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
