The art of taking a walk - Anke Gleber

flanerie, literature, and film in Weimar culture

KORTE INHOUD

In an age transformed by industrialism, the flaneur drifted through city streets, inspired and repelled by the surrounding scenes of splendor and squalor. This work examines this often elusive figure in the particular contexts of Weimar Germany and the intellectual sphere of Walter Benjamin, with whom the concept of flanerie is often associated.
