Synopsis "Obras: Walter Benjamín. Obra de los Pasajes. Libro v - Volumen 2: 8 (in Spanish)"

WALTER BENJAMIN (Berlín, 1892-Port-Bou, 194o) es uno de los pensadores alemanes más importantes e influyentes del pasado siglo. Hijo de una asentada familia judía, pronto se vincularía a las corrientes de pensamiento de tradición marxista, siendo considerado una de las figuras destacadas de la Escuela de Frankfurt, junto con Adorno y con Horkheimer. Pensador brillante e independiente durante la República de Weimar, tuvo que emprender la vía del exilio, primero a París, y luego, tras la ocupación de Francia por los nazis, a Estados Unidos. Un viaje truncado, sin embargo: ante la inminente posibilidad de caer en manos de las autoridades alemanas, Benjamin acaba con su vida el 26 de septiembre del 1940. Por sus extensas y brillantes aportaciones a los campos de la filosofía, la estética, la teoría y crítica literarias, o la teoría del arte y de la historia, la penetrante obra del filósofo se sitúa en la cima de la historia de la cultura de occidente al modo de un potente corrosivo que, aplicado al negativo de la realidad, descubre los detalles más ocultos de su contrafigura revelada.

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.
