Discover the profound insights of Pablo Oyarzun, one of the leading Benjamin scholars in Latin America. In this essential academic work, Oyarzun delves deep into the intricate concepts of Walter Benjamin, such as translation, experience, and the nature of history and storytelling.

Description:
Pablo Oyarzun is one of the foremost Benjamin scholars in Latin America. His writings have shaped the reception of Benjamin™s work in Latin America and have been central to the effort to identify the tasks and responsibilities of the kind of critical theory that would interrupt social violenceIn this book Oyarzun examines some of the key concepts in Benjamin™s work “ including his concepts of translation, experience, history and storytelling “ and relates them to his own systematic reflection on the nature and implications of ˜doing justice™. What is meant by the words ˜justice was done™? The passive voice is important here. On the one hand, justice does nothing: it is not an agent, it can only prevail or fail, and if it fails, it does so without limit. On the other hand, the passive voice alludes to the agents of an action while covering them up; the allusion is the masking of the identity and traces of the person who accomplishes the action. And this cover-up can be dangerous: it can cover-up the executioners, who are subjects that everyone can confirm anonymously, without their being recognized and without their wanting to be recognized. Justice, argues Oyarzun, can only be done in the active effort to do justice “ or, as Benjamin would say, in the striving to turn the world into the highest goodThis book by one of Chile™s most distinguished philosophers will be of value to anyone interested in Benjamin™s work and in the development of critical theory in Latin America.

Beautiful Watch, and easy to set up.
Color: 5535-ZP-blue
Looks classy, very easy to set the time, day of the week, and date. It is a class cover so it can break if dropped (my kids broke my first one), but it's inexpensive so it wasn't a huge deal. It's easy to read. Battery hasn't died for months. It's easy to put on and the size works for me.

Most important review for this watch and company.
Color: 5566-ZP-blue face, Color: 5566-ZP-blue face
I bought two and they both broke. Customer service has ignored my e-mail. What more do you need to know about a company? I personally wrote them through their own website, so they could keep Amazon out of it. It makes me angry that they won't even reply to my e-mail. I was nice. Both watches broke, neither one if actually water proof. The band is exceptionally thin and it WILL break on you once it arrives. It's so poor, that my body moisture is what got into the face of the watch. What the heck? I've had better 9 dollar watches from Walmart. Zero out of zero for the COMPANY who doesn't care about their customers, and zero out of ten for watch quality. Useless. I wasted 60-80 bucks on two of these! BOTH BROKE! and in more than one way!!!!! Terribly marked up (this is less than a 10 dollar Walmart watch - quality is LOWER than the lowest 3 dollar watches off Temu, Shien, Walmart), customer service is non-existent, and the band WILL BREAK on you. It's worthless. Take your money somewhere else. Attached pictures show the moisture leak from my sweat, but in real life, it's actually much worse. Worthless, not usable. Two of them folks. TWO!

As Advertised
Color: 5535-HP-white
The watch is what I expected, and works upon receipt as advertised. At this price, if it only works for 4-6 months it's easily worth the money. Large, nice looking face, day/date. Wristband is what you'd expect, but adequate and comfortable.
