The present thesis aims to analyze Walter Benjamin s concept of work of art based on his theory of language, using as our object the first writings of the author, ranging from 1910 to 1930. The reason for focusing on such a theory is that we perceive the maintenance of a thought structure in it which encompasses many themes, including our own, that of a concept of work of art. This structure characterizes itself for the determination of conceptual extremes, which communicate and correspond one another in order to form a philosophical system that, contradictorily, is distinguished by its fragmentation. With this in mind, we intend to make a topological approach, that is, to name some topoi, motifs spread in Benjamin s system, which reproduce the same characteristics, either in his philosophy of history or in his theory of art. In sum, we point out the relations as well as the correspondences among those topoi as we also observe a dimension that gradually rises in this structure, a dialectical one.
