«Dirección única» is Walter Benjamin's book of reflections and fragments, published by Editorial Alfaguara in paperback (104 pages, in Spanish).
In «Dirección única», Walter Benjamin brings together aphoristic texts on the city and modern life, pausing on everyday scenes to reveal the extraordinary in the familiar. Benjamin combines lyricism, observation and critical thought, turning one-way street into an invitation to view reality from other perspectives.
For readers seeking a brief, suggestive read in which critical thought makes its way through the observation of the everyday.
Walter Bendix Schönflies Benjamin was a German philosopher, cultural critic, media theorist, and essayist. An eclectic thinker who combined elements of German idealism, Jewish mysticism, Western Marxism, and post-Kantianism, he made contributions to the philosophy of history, metaphysics, historical materialism, criticism, and aesthetics, and had an oblique but overwhelmingly influential impact on the resurrection of the Kabbalah by virtue of his life-long epistolary relationship with Gershom Scholem.
