This book analyses multiple facets of Kracauer's work,
comprehending the essayistic, narrative, philosophical, theoretical
and critical writings, and putting special emphasis on some
aspects: the phenomenology of metropolis, the theory of
historiographic method, the reflections on the crisis of the
subject and the emergence of a new subjectivity, the new forms of
perception and aesthetic behaviour in late capitalism, the function
of critic-intellectuals, the sociology of the middle classes, the
theory of fascism, the aesthetical and sociological reflections on
literary genres, the politicization of melancholy. An original
feature of this book is the attention it pays to the links between
Kracauer's theoretical and critical writings and the traditions of
heterodox Marxism, against a habitual tendency to obliterate the
political (and emancipatory) dimension in the German author.
