Description: Walter Benjamin by Richard Wolin Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description An introduction to the life and work of Walter Benjamin, the German-Jewish philosopher and literary and cultural critic. The text offers insight into Benjamins complex relationships with Adorno, Brecht, Jewish Messianism and Western Marxism. Publisher Description Few twentieth-century thinkers have proven as influential as Walter Benjamin, the German-Jewish philosopher and cultural and literary critic. Richard Wolins book remains among the clearest and most insightful introductions to Benjamins writings, offering a philosophically rich exposition of his complex relationship to Adorno, Brecht, Jewish Messianism, and Western Marxism. Wolin provides nuanced interpretations of Benjamins widely studied writings on Baudelaire, historiography, and art in the age of mechanical reproduction. In a new Introduction written especially for this edition, Wolin discusses the unfinished Arcades Project, as well as recent tendencies in the reception of Benjamins work and the relevance of his ideas to contemporary debates about modernity and postmodernity. Author Biography Richard Wolin is Professor of History at Rice University. His books include The Politics of Being: The Political Thought of Martin Heidegger (1990) and The Terms of Cultural Criticism: The Frankfurt School, Existentialism, Poststructuralism (1992).
