Walter Benjamin’s famous posthumous script “On the Concept of History” still remains somehow problematic and cryptic. One may, however, resolve the riddle of the text, if we focus on the aspect of Benjamin’s Messianism. It seems to be plausible that the concept and figure of “citation” is taken as a point of departure. Karl Kraus, the famous and prodigious writer in the fin-de-siecle Vienna, enormously influenced the mode and structure of Benjaminian thoughts and writings. As a constant reader of Kraus, Benjamin borrowed the esprit and strategy from the texts of Kraus ranging of newspaper articles to literary works. However, the core of these is to be found in the method of citation. One might summarize Benjamin’s citation-concept, which he renovated from the one of Kraus, in one short sentence: “The origin is the telos [Ursprung ist das Ziel].” This sentence is quoted from Kraus’ poetical works. In a critical essay about Kraus printed in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (1931), Benjamin analyzed Krausian practices of journalistic writings and constructed a trilogy, i. e. “cosmic man [Allmensch]”, “demon [Damon]”, and “nonhuman [Unmensch]”. “Nonhuman” reveals the essence of the enigmatic figure of Benjaminian historical thoughts, Angelus Novus. It has two contradictory faces: the destructive one and the childlike one. The central thesis presented in this article suggests that these ambivalent aspects of the new angel can be confirmed in the juxtaposition of the ‘real’ Kraus and the fictional character ‘Kraus’ who appears in the novel Jakob von Gunten by Robert Walser. The real Kraus presents the destructive aspect of the new angel and the fictional Kraus the transient and fugacious one. This very ambivalence of Angelus Novus is the core of Walter Benjamin’s Messianism.
