Produktinformationen zu „Walter Benjamin and the Media / Theory and Media (PDF)“
Walter Benjamin (1892-1940), one of the most original and
perceptive thinkers of the twentieth century, offered a unique
insight into the profound impact of the media on modern society.
Jaeho Kang's book offers a lucid introduction to
Benjamin's theory of the media and its continuing relevance
today.
The book provides a systematic and close reading of
Benjamin's critical and provocative writings on the
intersection between media - from print to electronic - and modern
experience, with reference to the information industry, the urban
spectacle, and the aesthetic politics. Bringing Benjamin's
thought into a critical constellation with contemporary media
theorists such as Marshall McLuhan and Jean Baudrillard, the book
helps students understand the implications of Benjamin's work
for media studies today and how they can apply his distinctive
ideas to contemporary media culture.
Kang's book leads to a fresh appreciation of Benjamin's
work and new insight into critical theoretical approaches to media.
The book will be of particular interest to students and researchers
not only in media and communication studies but also in cultural
studies, film studies and social theory, who are seeking a readable
overview of Benjamin's rich yet complex writings.
