The origin of German tragic drama
€10.25
Cited by Lukács as a principal source of literary modernism, Walter Benjamin’s study of the baroque stage-form called `The Origin of German Tragic Drama Trauerspiel’ (literally, “mourning play”) is the most complete document of his prismatic literary and philosophical practice. Engaging with sixteenth- and seventeenth-century German playwrights as well as the plays of Shakespeare and Calderón and the engravings of Dürer, Benjamin attempts to show how the historically charged forms of the Trauerspiel broke free of tragedy’s mythological timelessness. From its philosophical prologue, which offers a rare account of Benjamin’s early aesthetics, to its mind-wrenching meditation on allegory, `The Origin of German Tragic Drama’ sparkles with early insights and the seeds of Benjamin’s later thought.)
