Subject:       Ways of Seeing


Benjamin's "Artwork" essay was acknowledged by John Berger's WAYS OF 
SEEING television series (and BBC-book) as a major influence. The 
huge success and influence of that series in turn led to a lot of 
interest in this essay of Benjamin's in particular. 

It may not be an appropriate beginning but I will be interested to 
hear the views of others on the relation of these two texts. 

In particular, I think that they relate interestingly on the issue of 
mystery and mystification.
