Eliciting from Benjamin’s writings a conception of philosophy that is political in its dissociation from – its becoming renegade in relation to, its philosophic shame about – established laws, norms, and forms, the book compares Benjamin’s writings with relevant works by Agamben, Heidegger, Levinas, and others. In relating Benjamin’s writings on Kafka to Benjamin’s writings on politics, the study delineates a philosophic impetus in literature and argues that this impetus has potential political consequences. Finally, the book is critical of Benjamin’s messianism insofar as it is oriented by the anticipated elimination of exceptions and distractions. Exceptions and distractions are, the book argues, precisely what literature, like other arts, brings to the fore. Hence the philosophic, and the political, importance of literature. . | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | Kafka; Walter Benjamin; Literature; Politics; Messianism | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-72011-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-10145-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-72011-1 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2018 |
