The Disenchantment Of Art by Rainer Rochlitz
This text argues that despite Walter Benjamin being one of the great cultural critics of this century, his philosophical ideas remain elusive, often considered a disaggregated set of thoughts not meant to cohere. This book provides a more systematic perspective on Benjamin, laying claim to his status as a philosopher and situating his work in the context of his time. Exploring Benjamin's theory of langauge, spoken and non-spoken, Rainer Rochlitz shows how Benjamin reconceptualized traditional ideas of language, art and history. Offering an expansive assessment of a 20th-century thinker, this volume provides a guide for readers of Benjamin's recently released collected works.| SKU | Unavailable |
