Adorno's Aporetic Thinking
Extending Adorno's aporetic worldview from Minima Moralia - that the problems of contemporary life find their response not through resolution but through reflection - to Adorno's other writings, this book offers an innovative new reading of how logic and literary form mutually inform Adorno's thought.What do we do when we are faced with a problem that cannot be avoided or resolved? How does thought respond to such immovable obstacles? The blocks that are encountered in these terms are those that prevent life from realizing itself, and that consequently leave it stunted or disfigured. For Adorno, such problems are evidence of "damaged life," which he sought to think through across several of his works, including Minima Moralia: Reflections From Damaged Life.Adorno's Aporetic Thinking unfolds the peculiar mode of thinking that emerges as Adorno attempts to consider the aporetic issue of problems that cannot be simply overcome. Through extended readings of Adorno's works and texts by Kafka, Beckett, and Hegel as interlocutors, this book uncovers a form of thinking that responds to these blocks to life by way of the blocks themselves, which constitutes an aporetic thinking of damaged life, or a thinking of aporias through aporias.

Kant, Adorno, and the Forms of History
Allen’s latest work constitutes an intellectual contribution of the first order: impeccably written, shrewdly argued, and well informed regarding the existing scholarship. The text is a pleasure to read, as Allen patiently unfolds a fascinating argument that manages to shed new light on the relationship between the philosophy of history and the formal demands of the aesthetic as they emerge in Adorno’s complicated inheritance of Kant and post-Kantian thought.

Illegibility
Blanchot and HegelIllegibility is not only a thorough, valuable study of Blanchot’s relation to Hegel, but also helps to clarify in a new and convincingly argued way how exactly Blanchot thought about writing, and how his thought was operative in his writing.

Noir and Blanchot
Deteriorations of the EventIt is tempting to respond to dark times with the light of optimism. But as William S. Allen shows in Noir and Blanchot, this is to fall into the trap of darkness. In a pathbreaking exploration of using darkness to forge a way out of darkness, Allen brings together two unlikely allies - film noir and Maurice Blanchot - to disrupt the prevailing dark times.
