Summary/Abstract: In classical aesthetics, negativity is hardly addressed, while it plays a central role in modern aesthetics. Theodor W. Adorno discusses the element of negation in numerous passages (over 130) of his "Aesthetic Theory" (1972). He deals with essential manifestations such as the destruction of the artwork, loss of meaning in poetry, the disintegration of artistic form, the tendency toward obscenity, and de-aestheticizing motifs and figures.
