File:Stanley Sarah K 2016 Revolutionary Climatology Rings of Saturn Ringed by Red Lightning.pdf

S.K Stanley’s Revolutionary Climatology examines the implications of Benjamin’s working through of Marxist historical materialism through an ecological reading of The Arcades Project, while zeroing in on his deployment of literary method within a media archeological framework. It draws out a poetics of geological time scales that Benjamin had seeded through much of his writings. To that end it draws on the media science or Medienwissenshaft as developed at Humboldt University, in particular, the work of Wolfgang Ernst and his maxims of media that operate without human interlocution.
