| Research Abstract |
This research aims to connect the context of the relation between technology and human perception in Walter Benjamin to the context of his theological thought, and thus to shed some light on the characteristics of his thought in general. It can be assumed that technology and transformation of perception, as are thematized in Benjamin's essay "The Work of Art in the Age of its Technological Reproducibility" - and especially reconstruction of fragments and recognition of these mosaic images which are also discussed in the contemporary hypertext theories -, are overlapped with the stage of redemption in his theological model which should be understood from the perspective of an ahistorical concept of time.
