 | Constellation: Friedrich Nietzsche and Walter Benjamin in the Now-Time of History Constellation is the first extended exploration of the relationship between Walter Benjamin, the Weimar-era revolutionary cultural critic, and the radical philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. The affinity between these noncontemporaneous thinkers serves as a limit case manifesting the precariousness and potentials of cultural transmission in a disillusioned present. James McFarland is Assistant Professor of German Studies at Vanderbilt University. |
