The work aims to delve deeper into Walter Benjamin's philosophy, focusing on the idea of the threshold as a structuring notion that runs through the multiple phases of his thought. The mode of allegoresis present and expressive in this author's writing, where a theory of dialectical images is articulated, is important for our interpretation because Benjamin's own writing presents itself as a medium of reflection in which his epistemological conceptions about the character of the Idea, his aesthetic reflections and his historiographical criticism are revealed. All her writing, which brings up such questions, is an expression and a threshold zone regarding the relationship between beauty/truth, form/content, language/image, the sensible/intelligible, time/history. It is therefore suggested that from the relationship between truth and beauty, Benjamin develops in his critique the concept of sem-expression, an element that undoes the false totality of appearance to reveal a true fragment of the world, through the work of art, connecting art as appearance to the field of truth, revealing it as an essential law for thought.
