About the Book

- It analyses for the first time the national cinemas and figures that most interested Benjamin separately and in depth: Soviet film, Weimar cinema, Charlie Chaplin and Mickey Mouse. - It offers extensive research of Benjamin's theories on technology and their connection to his writings on film. - Through the concept of 'anthropological materialism', the book raises important questions about the relationship between the body and artwork with the arrival of technologies of reproduction. The book suggests that these questions are highly relevant in addressing contemporary debates about our interaction with technology, especially digital technologies.
