Book excerpt: The towering twentieth century thinker delve into literature, philosophy, and his own life experience in this “extraordinary collection” (Publishers Weekly). A companion volume to Illuminations, the first collection of Walter Benjamin’s writings, Reflections presents a further sampling of his wide-ranging work. Here Benjamin evolves a theory of language as the medium of all creation, discusses theater and surrealism, reminisces about Berlin in the 1920s, recalls conversations with Bertolt Brecht, and provides travelogues of various cities, including Moscow under Stalin. Benjamin moves seamlessly from literary criticism to autobiography to philosophical-theological speculations, cementing his reputation as one of the greatest and most versatile writers of the twentieth century. “This book is just that: reflections of a highly polished mind that uncannily approximate the century’s fragments of shattered traditions.” —Time

Download or read book Aphorisms and Reflections written by J. L. Spalding and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aphorisms and Reflections: Conduct, Culture and Relgion The point of view in these aphorisms and reflections is that of religion and culture, the general idea being that each one fashions and bears his world with him, and that unless he himself become wise, strong and loving, no change in his circumstances can make him rich or free or happy. The inspiration is faith in the worth and sacredness of human life, in the joy of living, in civilization and progress, in God and the soul. There is here however nothing so formal or weighty as a system; but rather glances at many subjects, aspects of things as revealed in glimpses caught on occasion or by chance; and hence there is lack of orderly arrangement. The book will not please those who would have method in everything, even in whims and fancies, in reveries and dreams.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aphorisms and Reflections: Conduct, Culture and Relgion Proverbs are the wheat which remains after a whole world of talk and writing has sifted through innumerable minds. They are the fine essence of literature, true embodiments of the experience of life, and they most abound in the most vital books. They are the form of speech all the great teachers have loved; the mould in which the people have most gladly received and most abidingly held the great moral truths. Mothers tell them to their children, poets put them in the mouths of their heroes; and the devil may quote them for his purpose. The test of a thought is that it contain its worth and meaning apart from the context. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
