Walter Benjamin is often considered the key modern philosopher and critic of modern art. Tracing his influence on modern aesthetics and cultural history, Introducing Walter Benjamin highlights his commitment to political transformation of the arts as a means to bring about social change. Benjamin witnessed first-hand many of the cataclysmic events of modern European history. He took a critical stance on the dominant ideologies of Marxism, Zionism and Technocracy, and his attempt to flee Nazi Europe ultimately led to his suicide in 1940. With its brilliant combination of words and images, this is an ideal introduction to one of the most elusive philosophers.

Seven decades after his death, German Jewish writer, philosopher, and literary critic Walter Benjamin (1892–1940) continues to fascinate and influence. Here Uwe Steiner offers a comprehensive and sophisticated introduction to the oeuvre of this intriguing theorist. Acknowledged only by a small circle of intellectuals during his lifetime, Benjamin is now a major figure whose work is essential to an understanding of modernity. Steiner traces the development of Benjamin’s thought chronologically through his writings on philosophy, literature, history, politics, the media, art, photography, cinema, technology, and theology. Walter Benjamin reveals the essential coherence of its subject’s thinking while also analyzing the controversial or puzzling facets of Benjamin’s work. That coherence, Steiner contends, can best be appreciated by placing Benjamin in his proper context as a member of the German philosophical tradition and a participant in contemporary intellectual debates. As Benjamin’s writing attracts more and more readers in the English-speaking world, Walter Benjamin will be a valuable guide to this fascinating body of work.

Walter Benjamin (1892-1940), longtemps méconnu du public français, parce que desservi par la transmission de ses textes, ne cesse de nous surprendre par la force plurielle de sa pensée. Son impact dans le champ intellectuel contemporain ne cesse de progresser, avec insistance. Souvent lu que de façon fragmentaire, une introduction qui fasse droit à l'ensemble de son œuvre s'avérait urgente et nécessaire.

Depuis leur redécouverte à la fin des années 1960, les écrits de Benjamin ont profondément contribué au renouvellement de la philosophie de l'art et de l'histoire culturelle contemporaines. Malgré cette reconnaissance posthume. l'oeuvre de Benjamin reste déroutante, en raison même de son foisonnement et de sa richesse qui en font un labyrinthe où il est aisé de se perdre. Cette introduction donne une vue d'ensemble très claire de l'itinéraire de Benjamin. Les ressources de l'illustration en font non seulement une lecture ludique, mais se prêtent particulièrement bien à cette pensée inclassable qui recourt elle-même fréquemment à l'image pour prendre le relais du concept. Introduction idéale pour tous ceux qui voudraient mieux connaître ce penseur atypique, ce volume sera également apprécié des lecteurs déjà familiers de l'univers de Benjamin, qui y retrouveront bon nombre des aphorismes et des formules percutantes qui ont fait le succès de l'auteur d'Enfance berlinoise.
