Grenz I 57
Truth/Adorno/Grenz: the relationship between truth and untruth is linked to the relationship between necessary and superfluous reign in society.
>
Governance, >
Totality/Adorno.
Grenz I 61
Truth/Adorno/Grenz: In Adorno's thinking only facts are true, namely a narrowly delimited sector of facts: true would be the state of society in which the full measure of possible freedom of reign would be realized.
Grenz I 64
Truth/subjective/objective/Hegel/Adorno/Grenz: the residual theory of truth, according to which objective is what is left after striking out the so-called subjective factors, is hit by Hegel's critique into the empty center.
>
Subject/Hegel.
The recognition is fruitful not by the elimination of the subject, but by virtue of its supreme effort...
(1).
Grenz I 70
Truth/Adorno/Grenz: three spheres of the historicity of truth:
1. Ideology
2. Idea of the possibility of the better to the true
3. Level of rationality or subjectivity.
>
Ideology/Adorno, >
Rationality/Adorno, >
Subjectivity/Adorno.
I Grenz 73
Truth/Adorno/Grenz: Genesis of truth from the false appearance. Truth and appearance are identified openly: the "best dialectical truth" of art...
I 74
...and philosophy is that "which exists in appearance."

Grenz I 94
Hegel/AdornoVsHegel/Grenz: You cannot choose in Hegel what suits you and reject what annoys you. His truth is in the Skandalon. Not renewal, only salvation suits him. To save Hegel, therefore, is to face his philosophy where it evokes the most pain; where its untruth is obvious, to snatch the truth from it.
(3)
I 95
Hegel/Truth/AdornoVsHegel/Grenz: The affirmation registers, mirror-inverted, the experience of overpowering compulsion, which is inherent in all beings through its amalgamation under the reign. This is the truth of Hegel's untruth.
