Examples are the feminist reading of Dialectic of Enlightenment by Andrew Hewitt, "'A Feminine Dialectic of the Enlightenment: Hork- heimer and Adorno Revisited,'" which challenges the traditional philosophical appropriation of the text; and Miriam Hansen's re- reading of Adorno's theory of mass culture, 'Mass Culture as "Hiero- glyphic Writing": The Alternative Adorno Revisited,' which critically responds to the postmodernist attack on Adorno's work, both in New German Critique 56 (spring-summer 1992):143-70 and 43-75 respectively.
