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
