Story0
Walter Benjamin (1892-1940) is now generally recognized as one of the most influential thinkers of the last century. This Very Short Introduction explores his extraordinary life and thought. His complex system of criticism is difficult for many, but it is coherent in its combination of a Judaic theological perspective with cultural Marxism. Benjamin's distinctive approach considered literary criticism, visual media, and the impact of cosmopolitanism. This innovative messianic understanding of history would go on to inspire countless critics and even entire schools of academia.

Mit feiner Beobachtungsgabe, sprachlicher Präzision und einem unverwechselbaren Stil verbindet er Philosophie, Literatur und Kulturkritik zu dichten, oft fragmentarischen Texten. Mit Berliner Kindheit um 1900 entwirft Benjamin ein poetisches Erinnerungsbuch. In kurzen Prosastücken beschwört er seine Kindheit in Berlin – nicht als lineare Erzählung, sondern als Folge von Momenten, Bildern und Atmosphären. Erinnerung wird hier zu einem Raum, in dem Vergangenheit und Gegenwart ineinander übergehen. Die Denkbilder schließlich versammeln eine Vielzahl kurzer, oft aphoristischer Texte.

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is the traditional name for the unfinished record of his own life written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; however, Franklin himself appears to have called the work his Memoirs. Although it had a tortuous publication history after Franklin's death, this work has become one of the most famous and influential examples of an autobiography ever written.

Ben Franklin's own lively story of his early years is a unique, fascinating, and influential look at this American founding father. It has been taught in schools as a moral tract, as a guide to self-improvement, and as the Great American Success Story. It also is relished both for its insight into colonial life and the mind of the man who most affected the development of our democratic form of government.

Nearly everyone swears - whether it's over a few too many drinks, in reaction to a stubbed toe, or in flagrante delicto. And yet we sit idly by as words are banned from television and censored in books. We insist that people excise profanity from their vocabularies, and we punish children for yelling the very same dirty words that we'll mutter in relief seconds after they fall asleep. Swearing, it seems, is an intimate part of us that we have decided to selectively deny.
