In this scrupulous, clear and fascinating examination of this essay, Michael L¿wy argues that it remains one of the most important philosophical and political writings of the twentieth century. Looking in detail at Benjamin's celebrated but often mysterious text, and restoring the philosophical, theological and political context, L¿wy highlights the complex relationship between redemption and revolution in Benjamin's philosophy of history.
