Jon Greenaway returns to the show, this time to discuss the life and intellectual legacy of the German Jewish Marxist, philosopher, and cultural critic Walter Benjamin.

We discuss his biography, his major works, his use of marxism and historical materialist, his art criticism, the role that jewish mysticism played in his work, the frankfurt school, his tragic suicide, and his overall legacy.
