Benjamin's works on being-in-the-world as the dazzlement of the capitalistic maya were, by the choice of its subject, condemned to implausibility,
especially
since from the outset they ran the risk of explaining the current situation by means of an anachronistic object: they focused on a type of building outdated from an architectural, economic, urban and aesthetic point ofview in order to load it with the entire weight of a hermeneutics of capital; the well-known expression that he wished, in view of the arcades, to write a "prehistory of the 19th century," betrays Benjamin's unclear claim to seek the supratemporal in the obsolete.
