Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism #15
Walter Benjamin's Other History: Of Stones, Animals, Human Beings, and Angels
Long considered to be an impenetrable, hermetic treatise, Walter Benjamin's The Origin of German Tragic Drama has rarely received the attention it deserves as a key text, central to a full understanding of his work. In this critically acclaimed study, distinguished Benjamin scholar Beatrice Hanssen unlocks the philosophical and ethical dimensions of his thought with great clarity and sophisitication.

I wish I had more time to read all of this text. I will certainly come back to it - no question. What I have read was excellent, but because of the complexity and intricacies of the arguments, it took a long time work through it.
