«Imaginación y sociedad. Iluminaciones I», book of essays by Walter Benjamin, published by Aguilar in hardback (221 pages, in Spanish).
The book brings together essays in which Walter Benjamin addresses the imagination and its impact on society, within a broader reflection on culture and modernity. With his philosophical and critical approach, he examines how images and cultural productions participate in collective experience and in the shaping of contemporary thought.
It corresponds to the first volume of the Iluminaciones series, published in 1993.
For readers interested in philosophy, critical theory and the essay as a genre, particularly reflection on modern culture.
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.
