Radio Benjamin

Resumen del libro

This collection of radio transcripts brings together some of the legendary theorist's most accessible and fascinating thinking. An indispensable addition to the Walter Benjamin library.

From 1927 to 1933, Walter Benjamin wrote and presented more than 80 broadcasts over the new medium of radio. Radio Benjamin gathers, for the first time in English, the surviving texts of these addresses. The broadcasts include stories, plays, readings, book reviews, a novella, and discussions of topics ranging from advice for job seekers to the architecture of Berlin to bootleggers in America.
