I 86
Enlightenment Adorno/Grenz: a) It is wrong in its methodology, which turns the sign character of language against its meanings, which is solved by the nonidentical, because this methodology continues the direction of identification and thus the distance from the nonidentical,
b) It is true as the destruction of the Platonic concept of meaning, already based on identification.
