Philip Tipperman: Forgotten Labor Painter of the 1930s
Introduction: How American Literature Understands Poverty
Living Labor: Fiction, Film, and Precarious Work

Introduction In his essay “The Author as Producer,” originally given as an address in 1934 at the Institute for the Study of Fascism in Paris, Walter Benjamin warns of the capacity of the dominant regime of cultural production to incorporate and de-politicize potentially radical materials and impulses. “[T]he bourgeois apparatus of production,” Benjamin argues, “can ass…
