Horkheimer planned a mimeographed volume of the dialectics fragments.

Evidence

The revision of the chapter on mass culture dragged on, and Horkheimer’s intentions were concentrated on publishing a mimeographed volume containing the available studies belonging to the dialectics book towards the end of the year. All these pieces together,' he wrote to Pollock in the middle of 1943, constitute a body of documents which in my opinion will make it possible to get quite a notion of the book as it is meant to live.I think that this fragments [sic] contain the principles of a philosophy to which we can stand [sic] and which is really original.’ — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 346
