"This thorough study on the work of the German-Jewish philosopher Walter Benjamin
exposes - in Benjamin's own metaphor - the 'dwarf of theology' hidden in the machinery
of his work, his own form of 'historical materialism'. In doing so it unearths and
explains his language theory, his art theory, his most cryptic baroque book, his philosophy
of history, and, last but not least, his famous labyrinthine unfinished opus magnum
on Paris, The Arcades project (the first philosophical book ever on the city). The
result is a detailed, meticulous and lucid analysis of the structure of Benjamin's
texts and an indispensable book for everyone who admires the work of one of the most
influential thinkers of the twentieth century."
