To disassemble the mystery of capitalist world commodity fetishism, resist materialized consciousness as well as alienation, and to seek Redemption road to the world, Benjamin began his research about the Arcades Project, contact his thinking of the real world and for the idea of the future society under the perspective of Glass Culture. He showed the panorama of "the Arcades Project" from cultural and historical category, analysis of the space culture of transparency and the fracture of temporal logic. Benjamin beyond the concept of Plato’s "Idea" and Kant’s "Empiricism", put forward for the dialectical secularization of religious experience. Meanwhile, his experience from daily strip away the outer layers of the real world, and discover the characteristics of experience with non-continuity, defamiliarization and continuity. Benjamin felt profoundly that the society has got into trouble of Auto Decline and Experience of Poverty, through diverse experience to the glass culture and careful thinking. On one hand, The heterogeneity of his ideas make the moment of "saturated with messiah type time pieces" with theory of historical progress of homogeneous time the opposite. Using the way of literary montage splice method and constellation characterization, enter the path to redemption of messiah, in nonlinear in the history of the development of space and time mining the images of dialectics as history Monadologie. On the other hand, he tried to rely on the power of the oppressed class, grasp the time of redemption at the time of the bourgeoisie’s weakening through the way of art politicized, and turn to the road of redemption combined with modern messiah and historical materialism. Benjamin conveyed this idea with his firm belief and the practice of struggle:the solidification mode of thinking is unable to bring salvation. Only treat historical objects and concepts with dialectic and materialism, creatively to build new productivity can let us closer to the truth.
