Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book develops the idea of `working with' Benjamin, seeking both to read his corpus and to put it to work - to show how a reading of Benjamin can open up issues that may not themselves be immediately obvious in his texts. Working with Walter Benjamin engages with the themes central to Benjamin's work with deftness, daring and critical insight while at the same time situating those themes within current academic and cultural debates. What is at stake is not simply where Benjamin's thought can be applied; what counts is how useful it is.
