Walter Benjamin's Grave New edition
Michael Taussig
In September 1940, Walter Benjamin committed suicide in Port Bou on the Spanish-French border when it appeared that he and his travelling partners would be denied passage into Spain in their attempt to escape the Nazis. This is an essay about his cemetery, eyewitness accounts of Benjamin's border travails, and the circumstances of his demise.
