Marcuse’s American arrival transformed him into a grateful, loyal Institute insider

Evidence

At the end of 1935, when he was rewriting yet again his first philosophical contribution to the ZfS, On the Concept of Essence', he wrote to Horkheimer: I should like to say to you, at the end of my first full year in America, how much I feel myself to be part of a humane and academic community here. I believe I have learnt a lot, and should like to thank you for this.’ The next person Horkheimer brought over to America, at the beginning of August, was Lowenthal. He was mainly needed to prepare a prospectus for the Institute before the new term began. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 166
