Walter Benjamin—philosopher, essayist, literary and cultural theorist—was one of the most original writers and thinkers of the twentieth century. This new selection brings together Benjamin's major works, including 'The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction,' his seminal essay on how technology changes the way we appreciate art. Also including writings on subjects ranging from Proust to Kafka, violence to surrealism, this is the essential volume on one of the most prescient critical voices of the modern age.
