瓦尔特·本雅明是德国著名的马克思主义文学评论家、哲学家,他对机械复制时代的艺术作品的新特性提出的很多见解,至今仍极具探讨价值。而本文所要论述的,是他提出的艺术原真性问题。笔者意在证明,在机械复制时代,原真性仍是艺术品必备的特质,还原真实甚至可以说是艺术神圣的职责。 Walter Benjamin, a well-known German Marxist literary critic and philosopher, put forward many insights into the new features of the works of art in the era of mechanical reproduction and is still exploring the value so far. What this article intends to discuss is his question of artistic authenticity. The author intends to prove that in the era of mechanical reproduction, authenticity is still an essential feature of the artwork, and the restoration of the truth can even be regarded as the sacred duty of the arts.
