Illuminations: Essays and Reflections - Walter Benjamin
Shared by:hdgdf
Studies on contemporary art and culture by one of the most original, critical and analytical minds of this century. Illuminations includes Benjamin’s views on Kafka, with whom he felt the closest personal affinity, his studies on Baudelaire and Proust (both of whom he translated), his essays on Leskov and on Brecht’s Epic Theater.
Also included are his penetrating study on “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction,” an illuminating discussion of translation as a literary mode, and his thesis on the philosophy of history. Hannah Arendt selected the essays for this volume and prefaces them with a substantial, admirably informed introduction that presents Benjamin’s personality and intellectual development, as well as his work and his life in dark times. Reflections the companion volume to this book, is also available as a Schocken paperback.

Thanks for all the wonderful books, hdgdf!
Would it be possible for you to post - Heidegger in Ruins: Between Philosophy and Ideology
by Richard Wolin?
Thanks

Wow, thanks! This is an unusual one to see as an audiobook, but should provide a nice review of essays I read many many years ago. I do recommend that people who are just digging into this via audiobook, study the actual text itself for some of the more difficult essays, like Critique Of Violence. And even then that last essay is really a challenge and is open to numerous different interpretations.

Wow. Thank you. Please share more philosophy and more Benjamin if you have it!
