  However insistently the idea of catastrophe hangs over Benjamin's writings in the final years of his life, the victories wrested in this period constitute some of the most remarkable 20th century analyses of the emergence of modern society. This volume ranges from studies of Baudelaire and Brecht to appraisals of photography, film, and poetry.
