Abstract

By reproducing the rules of past culture and social operation and comparing them with the cultural phenomena in the era of modern mechanical reproduction, Benjamin showed the destruction of human integrity caused by social culture after the development of German industry, which is still enlightening to modern culture. By combining his critical thoughts with the current development of modern culture, this paper explores the new features of modern literary and artistic creation, including the excessive emphasis on subjective feelings and the disappearance of “light charm”, the emphasis on “shock” and the disappearance of the ability to tell stories, and the separation of people’s sense and cognition under the impact of modern culture. Through the analysis of his thoughts to find the path of self and soul liberation in the modern consumer culture and commercial world, to explore the new possibilities of literary creation and cultural transmission.
