This week was a bit harder for me to prepare compared to last week. The texts were harder to follow, especially Adorno & Horkheimer. Benjamin's text was a little easier to grasp and I found it more interesting. I also tried to look up some of the concepts used by the authors, for example nominalism and Marxism, to be able to understand the texts better.
When reading the texts I tried to find the differences and similarities between them. They had a lot in common, but also some differences. But since I had a hard time to understand Adorno & Horkheimer it was difficult to tell exactly.
Under the seminar I learned a lot of things I didn't understand from reading by my own. For example Adorno and Horkheimer's view of the enlightenment. It was hard to follow their text because they change opinion under the course of their book.
