Vilém Flusser (1920–1991) was a self-taught philosopher. A Jew, he was born in Prague, in the then newly independent Czechoslovakia. Fleeing the Nazis, he emigrated to Brazil in 1940, and settled in São Paulo. Beginning in the 1950s he taught philosophy and functioned as a journalist, before publishing his first book Língua e realidade (Language and Reality) in 1963. His work was marked in this first phase by discussion of the thought of Martin Heidegger, and by the influence of existentialism
