W. Benjamin on Dialectic - Dictionary of Arguments
Bolz II 14 Dialectic/Benjamin: Benjamin does not produce a synthesis. He lets the opposites collide to create space for the concept of a salvation that cannot be understood as the result of human planning and manipulation. >Synthesis. Bolz II 31f Dialectic/Benjamin: Benjamin probably thinks dialectically, but not in a Hegelian way. >Dialectic, >Dialectic/Hegel. Bolz II 56 Dialectic of Power/Benjamin: the ruler knows that he himself will end up victim of his atrocities. The tyrant is simultaneously a mrtyr. The courtly nobleman is not only perfected in his manners, but at the same time the perfect intriguer. >Power, >Master/Slave, >Tyranny. Bolz II 69 "Dialectic at a standstill" means not reaching the goal. The movement continues, but on the spot. Eternal passage. "Nu": "The thing that has been gets flashingly connected to the "Now" into a constellation." >Process, >Motion, >Present, >Past, >Future, >Time. 1. W. Benjamin, Gesammelte Schriften.
