MOLANO, MARIO ALEJANDRO. WALTER BENJAMIN: HISTORY, EXPERIENCE, AND MODERNITY. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2014, vol.63, n.154, pp.165-190. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v63n154.31199.

Since the end of the 20^th century, there has been increasing research on modernity, especially on different segments of the cultural field. Read in this context, the works of Walter Benjamin acquire great value. The article explores four of Benjamin's themes: a) some aspects of his concept of history; b) the concept of experience, in order to show its historical-critical dimension regarding the rise of modern culture; c) the affinities between the way he allegorical view is developed in German Baroque drama and the way in which Baudelaire deals with the issues of modernity; and d) elements of some cultural forms of modern art that Benjamin is interested in.

Palavras-chave : W. Benjamin; modern art; modernity.
