Walter Benjamin and the Work of Art is the first book to provide a broad and dedicated analysis of this canonical work and its effect upon core contemporary concerns in the visual arts, aesthetics and the history of philosophy. The book is structured around three distinct areas: the extension of Benjamin's work; the question of historical connection; the importance of the essay in the development of criticism of both the visual arts and literature. Contributors to the volume include major Benjamin commentators, whose work has very much defined the reception of the essay, and leading philosophers, historians and aesthetician, whose approaches open up new areas of interest and relevance 410 0$aWalter Benjamin studies series. 606 $aArt and society 606 $2Philosophy: aesthetics 615 0$aArt and society. 676 $a834/.912 702 $aBenjamin$b Andrew E. 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777313803321 996 $aWalter Benjamin and art$93728983 997 $aUNINA
