Notă biografică

Hannah Arendt was born in Hanover, Germany, in 1906, and received her doctorate in philosophy from the University of Heidelberg. In 1933, she was briefly imprisoned by the Gestapo, after which she fled Germany for Paris, where she worked on behalf of Jewish refugee children. In 1937, she was stripped of her German citizenship, and in 1941 she left France for the United States. Her many books includeThe Origins of Totalitarianism(1951),The Human Condition(1958) andEichmann in Jerusalem(1963), in which she coined the famous phrase 'the banality of evil'. She died in 1975.

Recenzii

A kind of nonfiction bookend toNineteen Eighty-Four
How could such a book speak so powerfully to our present moment? The short answer is that we, too, live in dark times, even if they are different and perhaps less dark, andOriginsraises a set of fundamental questions about how tyranny can arise and the dangerous forms of inhumanity to which it can lead
Perhaps Arendt's most profound legacy is in establishing that one has to consider oneself political as part of the human condition. What are your political acts, and what politics do they serve?
Her masterpiece ... Arendt's inquiry into the elements of totalitarian domination teaches us we must never let go of the fear of totalitarian government
A vivid account of the system of concentration and death camps that Arendt believed defined totalitarian rule
Remarkable for us, no doubt, is Arendt's conviction that only philosophy could have saved those millions of lives
Her greatest work is this 1951 classic ... More than any thinker it was Hannah Arendt who identified how those movements of ideas, racial theories, people and methods take place, showing how they fused with other forces - most notably European antisemitism - to shape and ultimately disfigure the twentieth century
