Hello, my name is Benjamin, and my journey of suffering began in 1996 at the age of 16 when I woke up one morning and felt a strong pain on the inside of my left buttock. Not fully awake yet, I discovered a horrific sight in the mirror as I tried to understand the cause of this pain. It was an elongated, roughly cucumber-shaped, and large abscess that caused such a painful inflammation that I couldn't sit or walk properly. I believe I will never forget this first abscess.

In Aesthetics and Politics the key texts of the great Marxist controversies over literature and art during these years are assembled in a single volume. They do not form a disparate collection but a continuous, interlinked debate between thinkers who have become giants of twentieth-century intellectual history.

The work of the great literary and cultural critic Walter Benjamin is an audacious plotting of history, art, and thought; a reservoir of texts, commentaries, scraps, and fragments of everyday life, art, and dreams. Throughout his life, Benjamin gathered together all kinds of artifacts, assortments of images, texts, and signs, themselves representing experiences, ideas, and hopes, each of which was enthusiastically logged, systematized, and analyzed by their author. In this way, Benjamin la...

Nothing is further from my mind than to shake either your conviction or your distrust.”Walter Benjamin was one of the great cultural critics of the twentieth century. In Unpacking My Library he offers a strikingly personal meditation on his career as a book collector and on the str...
