clogic-192631	Wayne, Mike	Esther Leslie: Walter Benjamin: Overpowering Conformism. London: Pluto Press, 2000, pp. 256	2020	6	.pdf	application/pdf	2546	104	44	'17 Leslie critiques the way Benjamin has been remembered by writers such as Zygmunt Bauman, who constructs Benjamin in his own image, committed to a liberal politics of indeterminateness;18 Scholem constructs a Judaic Benjamin which 'bemoans' his Marxism; Jameson feels severed from Benjamin, who lived in another historical time, pre-postmodernist. Even when he was alive, Benjamin presented and developed different facets of his theoretical influences to different, even antagonistic, close friends.1 After his death, these ambivalences helped to foster almost as many Benjamins as interpreters of him.	cache/clogic-192631.pdf	txt/clogic-192631.txt
