Abstract

Adorno and Benjamin’s common intellectual project has been labeled, by Adorno, an Inverse Theology. This re-translation of theology into it’s metaphysical truth contents can be only fully comprehended by taking into account their position towards the work of art. In this article, I locate the place where the categorical framework of “inverse theology” is displayed in a most complete manner in the discussion of Kafka’s prose and extrapolate the outline of an Inverse theology from Adorno and Benjamin’s readings of some of his most famous texts.

用人造天使的眼睛:本雅明和阿多诺解读卡夫卡
阿多诺和本雅明的共同思想项目被阿多诺贴上了“逆神学”的标签。只有考虑到神学对艺术作品的立场,才能充分理解神学对其形而上学真理内容的重新翻译。在这篇文章中,我找到了“逆向神学”的绝对框架在卡夫卡散文的讨论中以最完整的方式展示的地方,并从阿多诺和本雅明对他的一些最著名的文本的阅读中推断出逆向神学的轮廓。
