Jerry Zaslove will trace the line of Walter Benjamin's demystifications of violence and memory from several of his meditations in "Berlin Childhood" around 1900 through the "Critique of Violence" to "The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproducibility" in order to show the continuity of his thought about art as form of reality that speaks to us as both object and dialectical image of that reality.

From a very different, in many ways opposed perspective, Anarcho-Modernism: Toward a New Critical Theory, a collection of nearly forty essays in honor of the Simon Fraser University professor Jerry Zaslove, also attempts a new articulation of the political and the aesthetic.Indeed, with the exception of a number of very moving and inspiring reflections on personal relationships with Zaslove, the book is more or less evenly divided between essays dealing with literary or aesthetic issues (including the fascinating "An Excursion into the Amature Grotesque" by Martha Langford, which deals with incidental photographs from the beginning of the twentieth century) and ones that focus on political topics (and particularly on the politics of pedagogy).

The fact that a thinker like Derrida or Zaslove is difficult, even serious, and that they demand a great deal of their readers, means that they will repeatedly return, and that each return promises something new.

Jerry Zaslove, SFU professor emeritus, Humanities and English, looks at how art and literature have portrayed the demands for liberty and where the revolutionary confrontations are today.
