This first comparative study of philosophers and literary theorists
Mikhail Bakhtin and Walter Benjamin examines the relationship
between the experience of the modern world and the forms that we
use to make sense of that experience. Analyzing their views on art,
habit, tradition, and language, this comparative study results in a
radical reconsideration of received views about thinkers as well as
in a reconsideration of the modernity that Bakhtin and Benjamin
lived in and that we continue to inhabit now.
This first comparative study of the philosophers and literary
critics, Walter Benjamin and Mikhail Bakhtin, focuses on the two
thinkers' conceptions of experience and form, investigating
parallels between Bakhtin's theories of responsibility, dialogue,
and the novel, and Benjamin's theories of translation, montage,
allegory, and the aura.
