Presented here in a new edition with expanded notes, this genre-defying meditation on the semiotics of late-1920s Weimar culture offers a fresh opportunity to encounter Walter Benjamin at his most virtuosic and experimental, writing in a vein that anticipates later masterpieces such as 'On the Concept of History' and The Arcades Project. Composed of sixty short prose pieces that vary wildly in style and theme, One-Way Street evokes a dense cityscape of shops, cafes, and apartments, alive with the hubbub of social interactions and papered over with public inscriptions of all kinds: advertisements, signs, posters, slogans. Benjamin avoids all semblance of linear narrative, presenting readers with a seemingly random sequence of aphorisms, reminiscences, jokes, off- the-cuff observations, dreamlike fantasias, serious philosophical inquiries, apparently unserious philosophical parodies, and trenchant political commentaries. Providing remarkable insight into the occluded meanings of everyday things, Benjamin time and again proves himself the unrivalled interpreter of what he called 'the soul of the commodity.' Despite the diversity of its individual sections, Benjamin's text is far from formless. Drawing on the avant-garde aesthetics of Dada, Constructivism, and Surrealism, its unusual construction implies a practice of reading that cannot be reduced to simple formulas. Still refractory, still radical, One-Way Street is a work in perpetual progress."--Provided by publisher. 546 Translated from the German. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 20th century|2fast 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Aphorisms and apothegms.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85005966 650 0 Epigrams.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85044385 650 0 Philosophy, German|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85100921 650 7 Aphorisms and apothegms.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/811330 650 7 Epigrams.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/914131 650 7 Philosophy, German.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1060969 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Jephcott, E.
