Walter Benjamin
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-415-08959-3 (ISBN)
This book analyzes the development of Walter Benjamin's concept of experience in his early writings showing that it emerges from an engagement with visual experience, and in particular the experience of colour. It represents Benjamin as primarily a thinker of the visual field.
Howard Caygill is Professor of Cultural History at Goldsmiths College, University of London.
