- catalog abstract ""Gerhard Richter shows that Benjamin's engagement with the political cannot be understood in terms of unified concepts and fully deducible theses that can be easily verified or refuted. Rather than explaining his sense of the political, Benjamin enacts it in the movement of his language. Richter traces Benjamin's radical notions of the political through a series of corporeal figures in his often-neglected autobiographical writings." "Readers interested in modern German literature and culture, literary and cultural theory, comparative literature, Weimar culture, and fascism will welcome this book."--Jacket.".
