Reviews
"This volume of thirteen essays presents reevaluations of Walter Benjamin's short but influential essay, "The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction."... Benjamin's influence remains strong, particularly within the disciplines of philosophy, history, aesthetics, and cultural theory. The strength of this book is that it gives a sense of the direction of current Benjamin scholarship from within those disciplines, expressed in terms that5 are accessible to the general academic reader."- Frances Robertson, Technology and Culture, July 2006, Vol. 47, The most synoptic collection to date on Benjamin's important essay, this volume will serve as an excellent primer for those first encountering Benjamin's major essay and a fine summary and reconsideration of the essay for those familiar with it. Summing up: Highly recommended.

Synopsis
Walter Benjamin's most famous and influential essay remains The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction. Walter Benjamin and the Work of Art is the first book to provide a broad and dedicated analysis of this canonical work and its effect upon core contemporary concerns in the visual arts, aesthetics and the history of philosophy. The book is structured around three distinct areas: the extension of Benjamin's work; the question of historical connection; the importance of the essay in the development of criticism of both the visual arts and literature. Contributors to the volume include major Benjamin commentators, whose work has very much defined the reception of the essay, and leading philosophers, historians and aesthetician, whose approaches open up new areas of interest and relevance.

    Shipping was quick, packaging was excellent, condition was acceptable as described -- binding loose but pages intact. I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!

    I received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.

    I am always a little nervous when ordering books off of eBay but this seller has provided me with an EXCELLENT purchasing experience! The packaging was superior and I am grateful because this is a signed first edition and we all know how the post office can be at times. The Shipping was timely and the item actually arrived quicker than expected. The item EXCEEDED the description. It is stunning. I have dropped it off at my antiquarian for authors signature verification but the value is high.
