“闲逛者”是德国法兰克福学派美学家本雅明在对19世纪法国抒情诗人波德莱尔的研究中提出的一个非常重要且影响深远的概念，特指那些因为现代性城市的兴起，而可以游荡在城市各个角落，观察、体验都市生活的人。文学和文化研究者经常使用本雅明的闲逛者意象来探讨城市经验、城市空间与审美现代性等问题。闲逛者意象为人们阅读和分析城市文本提供了一个重要的理论视野。在后现代性消费社会的语境下，本雅明的闲逛者意象与消费文化产生了一定的关联性，特别在与现代生活之间的视觉联系、视觉消费、日常生活审美化等方面具有重要的文化意义。

On the Significance of Benjamin's "Flaneur" to the Contemporary Consumer Culture

＂Flaneur＂ is a highly essential and influential concept which was proposed by Benjamin, an aesthetician of the German Frankfurt School, in his research of the French lyrical poet named Baudelaire in the 19th century. It refers to those people who can wander through the cities, experience and observe city life with the development of the modern city. Researchers of literature and culture often discuss issues such as city experience, city space and aesthetic modernity by applying the image of ＂Flaneur＂. Therefore, the image of Flaneur provides an important theoretical perspective for people to read and analyze city texts. Importantly, in the context of a post-modern consumption society, the image of Flaneur in Benjamin＇s eyes has a certain relationship with the consumption culture. Furthermore it has cultural significance, particularly in aspects like, its visual relation to modern life, visual con- sumption and aesthetic appreciation of daily life.
