Reviews

  • 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
  • If the killing of Lorca was Fascism’s first great crime against literature, Benjamin’s death was undoubtedly the second.

    The Listener
  • Walter Benjamin is the most important German aesthetician and literary critic of this century.

    George Steiner
