Author of the Month: Walter Benjamin
Our author of the month for June is the German philosopher, literary critic and essayist Walter Benjamin. Although relatively little known during his lifetime, Benjamin’s works have, since his death by suicide on the French-Spanish border while in flight from the Nazis, come to be recognized as some of the most significant contributions to the culture of modernism in the first half of the 20th century.
