«Whereas in the symbol destruction is idealized and the transfigured face of nature is fleetingly
revealed in the light of redemption, in allegory the observer is confronted with the facies hippocratica
[change produced in the countenance by death, long illness, hunger, etc.] of history as a petrified,
primordial landscape. (Benjamin 1977: 166) »
