Reviews

"Walter Benjamin is the most important German aesthetician and literary critic of [the twentieth] century." Sunday Times "He drew, from the obscure disdained German baroque, elements of the modern sensibility: the taste for allegory, surrealist shock effects, discontinuous utterance, a sense of historical catastrophe." Susan Sontag
