Walter Benjamin and communications
Tuesday June 16 9:30 am - 10:30 am
One of the first texts by the German philosopher Walter Benjamin – written at the age of 22 – is dedicated to language, and to human modes of communication. His thesis is that human beings have received this gift of language, but to fight and try, without end, to communicate the incommunicable. Twenty years later, he wrote his famous text on the work of art at the time of technical reproducibility, and was one of the pioneers of this new medium called radio.
