Editorial demands for German-language mediation strained Marcuse’s ties to the Institute

Evidence

Perhaps a version changed to meet Adorno’s requirements might have been an improvement in some waysjust as Benjamin’s article on Baudelaire for the ZfS had been. But would it have been an improvement in terms of Marcuse’s requirements? The German edition of Marcuse’s Freud book appeared in 1957 with the publishers Ernst Klett under the title Eros und Kultur. … (In later editions the title was changed to Triebstruktur und Gesellschaft (Instinctual Structure and Society).) … The relationship between Marcuse and the directors of the Institute became even more fragile. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 525
