Synopsis "Materiales Para un Autorretrato (in Spanish)"

Materiales para un autorretrato reúne una serie de textos de Walter Benjamin —buena parte de ellos inéditos en español—,... Leer másMateriales para un autorretrato reúne una serie de textos de Walter Benjamin —buena parte de ellos inéditos en español—, cuya producción se extiende desde sus años de juventud hasta su prematura muerte. El conjunto compone un gabinete de curiosidades en el que se abordan temas tan diversos como la grafología, la prostitución, el diletantismo, la astrología, el juego, el esnobismo, la fantasía, el nazismo, el socialismo, lo mágico, lo extrasensorial, lo onírico, lo esotérico, lo erótico e incluso lo humorístico. Benjamin se vale de géneros tan diversos como las cartas, los poemas, los aforismos, las crónicas, el diario personal, los diálogos filosóficos y las listas de tesis para discurrir sobre estas cuestiones.La combinación de estas piezas forma un retrato único y original, que se aleja de la imagen más extendida de uno de los máximos exponentes del pensamiento crítico del siglo XX. En términos de Marcelo G. Burello, "esta antología es para aquellos lectores que aspiran a vérselas con un Benjamin auténtico, y ante todo para quienes aún quieren sorprenderse con él, al punto de leer un volumen íntegro salido de su pluma como si fuera la obra de un extraño con un lejano aire de familia, un desconocido que resulta atractivo o interesante por un vago presentimiento".
Walter Benjamin
  (Author)
View Author's Page
Walter Benjamin was a prominent philosopher, literary critic, and art and history theorist born in Berlin, Germany. His work and critical thinking have had a profound influence on 20th century cultural studies.
Benjamin was born into a wealthy Jewish family and grew up in an intellectually stimulating environment. From an early age, he showed an interest in literature, music, and art.
In the 1920s, after serving in the German army during World War I, he joined the Frankfurt School, a circle of German intellectuals and social critics interested in transforming Marxist ideas. There, he met other thinkers like Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer who were major influences on his work and worldview.
Throughout his life, Benjamin was also deeply interested in politics and social issues. During the years of the Weimar Republic, he actively participated in the cultural and literary field. However, the rise of Nazism to power in 1933 forced him to leave Germany. He first went into exile in Paris and after the French occupation, Benjamin tried to escape to Spain to embark towards the United States, but was detained at the French-Spanish border. Faced with the imminent threat of being handed over to the German authorities, the author decided to end his life.
