The study examines the intellectual relationship between Walter Benjamin and Salomo Friedlaender. Both use the ‘figure of thought’ ‘polarity’ in their works to describe the crises and extremes of their present. The study shows the debates in which Benjamin’s writings emerge. At the same time, the study rediscovers the philosopher and writer Salomo Friedlaender.
