Adorno's conception about the roles that art can play in various areas of human's life is absolutely different from the dogmatic thoughts of the traditional culture and philosophy. According to Adorno, the most important function of art consists in its "critical" approach and "redemptionary" character for analyzing and criticizing the structures of domination and suppression in the society. Hence, Adorno's emphasis on the critical theory of art and its role in transforming social consciousness relies on what he calls the "truth content" of art and artwork. Adorno's main motivation for questioning the relation of "art" and "truth" goes back to the social role of art and the epistemological function it would have. In this paper, some of Adorno's central ideas and notions, regarding the "truth content" theme, especially in his Aesthetic Theory will be discussed.

The twentieth-century French philosopher Gabriel Marcel (1889-1973), in her philosophical work, distinguished between "decision" and "mystery", the interrelationship of love from the mysteries of mystery. In his view, "mystery" is something that cannot be solved by common methods in science and the realm of early thought; rather, it must be acknowledged that it must be considered in the realm of a secondary thought. In Marcel's view, too, the secret of love belongs to the realm of "being," not to the realm of "having." In this article, in a descriptive-analytical way, we have tried to express the general lines of his thought in this regard and its epistemological implications from the perspective of human relations and acceptance of the existence of others in the romantic network between human beings and acceptance of the existence of a transcendent being in supernatural love. Let us also discuss the negation of skepticism and the proof of the existence of the world and the abandonment of Descartes' belief in subjectivity and subjectivism.
