As categorias erfahrung (experiência autêntica) e erlebnis (experiência inautêntica) são fundamentais na abordagem da Modernidade realizada por Walter Benjamin, centrada na análise dos modos de perceber e sentir o mundo, que se alteraram a partir de transformações sociais profundas – urbanização, mercantilização, difusão da técnica, tecnologização crescente da palavra. Walter Benjamin analisou, em diversas obras, o fenômeno do declínio da erhfarung (experiência autêntica) num crescendo que pondera os efeitos psicossociais do surgimento da escrita (com a queda da linguagem adâmica, apta à transmissão do ser das coisas), da imprensa, da indústria cultural, da vivência anônima e desenraizada nas grandes cidades. O resultado deste longo processo de instauração da Modernidade foi a entronização de uma percepção fragmentada, descontínua e irrefletida – a erlebnis (experiência inautêntica).As described by Walter Benjamin, the categories of erfahrung (authentic experience) and erlebnis (unauthentic experience) are fundamental to approaching the subject of modernization, they are a central point of analysis on the ways to perceive and feel the world, that are altered due to the profound transformation of society through urbanization, commercial development, the spread of technological growth and the propagation that written communication has on the culture sector. Walter Benjamin analyses in several works of art, the phenomenon of the decline of erhfarung (authentic experience) and ponders the progression of psycho social effects as a result of various writings (as Walter Benjamin explains ‘’The suppression of the language of Adam’’, allowing for the transmission of the essence of reality) from the Press, cultural development, and anonymous experiences in large city’s. As a result, this long process of introducing Modernity was essential an induced perception that is fragmented and discontinuous - the erlebnis (unauthentic experience)
