More about the book
Walter Benjamin's THE ORIGIN OF GERMAN TRAGIC DRAMA, long considered to be an indecipherable treatise on the German mourning play, has rarely received the attention it deserves as a key text, central to a full understanding of his work. Beatrice Hanssen reinterprets Benjamin's thought through an analysis of the seemingly innocuous figures of stones, animals, and angels that are scattered throughout his writings.
