(3) Walter Benjamin: das passagen-werk / the arcades project

http://folksonomy.org.uk/?s=3
Simon Perkins (01-12-2003)
Utterance:
The Arcades Project is Walter Benjamin's effort to represent and to critique the bourgeois experience of nineteenth-century history and, in so doing, to liberate the suppressed "true history" that underlay the ideological mask. Conceived in Paris in 1927 and still in progress when Benjamin fled the Occupation in 1940, The Arcades Project was constructed over the course of thirteen years---"the theatre," as Benjamin called it, "of all my struggles and all my ideas."According to Benjamin, an arcade is a city in miniature catering to consumer needs. It is an abstraction that condenses a heterogeneous environment of shopping opportunities and goods into a unified experience.
