Benjamin's Figures

Zusatztext

aus dem Klappentext:Just as Benedetto Croce cleared the way to the individual, concrete work of art by demolishing the doctrine of artistic form, so the purpose of my analyses so far has been to clear the way to the work of art by demolishing the doctrine which would assign art to a distinct domain. The common programmatic aim of these analyses has been to further the process of integration in scholarship, which increasingly transgresses the rigid disciplinary boundaries that characterized its practice in the last century. They do so through a study of the work of art which sees in it an integral expression of the religious, metaphysical, political, and economic tendencies of its age that will not in any sense be pigeonholed.Walter Benjamin
