Walter Benjamin has become a decisive reference point for a
whole range of critical disciplines, as he constructed a unique and
provocative synthesis of aesthetics, politics and philosophy.
Examining Benjamina (TM)s contributions to cultural criticism in
relation to the works of Max Ernst, Adolf Loos, Le Corbusier and
Sigfried Giedion, this book also situates Benjamina (TM)s work
within more recent developments in architecture and urbanism.
This is a concise, coherent account of the relevance of Walter
Benjamina (TM)s writings to architects, locating Benjamina (TM)s
critical work within the context of contemporary architecture and
urbanism.
