description: In response to an overwhelming resurgence of interest in recent years in the work and life of Walter Benjamin, along with a marked increase in the availability of Benjamin's own work (both in the form new translations and new editions of already available texts), this is a timely reappearance of Walter Benjamin's Philosophy - Destruction and Experience - an influential and authoritative collection of commentary from the world's foremost Benjamin scholars. Originally part of the Warwick Studies in European Philosophy series from Routledge, this volume features contributions from Rodolphe Gasche, Howard Caygill, Gertrud Koch, Andrew Benjamin, A.G. Duttmann and others. Contains a newly commissioned essay by Peter Osborne, which places the volume in context following the recent developments in Walter Benjamin studies and another by Esther Leslie examining the impact of the Arcades Project on Benjamin studies.
