Fragments of Modernity, first published in 1985, provides a
critical introduction to the work of three of the most original
German thinkers of the early twentieth century. In their different
ways, all three illuminated the experience of the modern urban
life, whether in mid nineteenth-century Paris, Berlin at the turn
of the twentieth century or later as the vanguard city of the
Weimar Republic. They related the new modes of experiencing the
world to the maturation of the money economy (Simmel), the process
of rationalization of capital (Kracauer) and the fantasy world of
commodity fetishism (Benjamin). In each case they focus on those
fragments of social experience that could best capture the sense of
modernity.
