Content:
"The Benjamin files offers a comprehensive new reading of all of Walter Benjamin's major works and a great number of his shorter book reviews, notes, and letters. Its premise is that Benjamin was an antiphilosophical, antisystematic thinker whose conceptual interests felt the gravitational pull of his vocation as a writer. What resulted arose from the coexistence or variety of language fields and thematic codes, which overlapped and often seemed to contradict each other: a view which allows Fredric Jameson to clarify the much-debated tension between the mystical or theological side of Benjamin and his political or historical inclination."
