Hannah Arendt (1906–1975) was one of the most influential political philosophers of the twentieth century. Born into a German-Jewish family, she was forced to leave Germany in 1933 and lived in Paris for the next eight years, working for a number of Jewish refugee organisations. In 1941 she immigrated to the United States and soon became part of a lively intellectual circle in New York. She held a number of academic positions at various American universities until her death in 1975. She is best known for two works that had a major impact both within and outside the academic community. The first, The Origins of Totalitarianism, published in 1951, was a study of the Nazi and Stalinist regimes that generated a wide-ranging debate on the nature and historical antecedents of the totalitarian phenomenon. The second, The Human Condition, published in 1958, was an original philosophical study that investigated the fundamental categories of the vita activa (labor, work, action). In addition to these two important works, Arendt published a number of influential essays on topics such as the nature of revolution, freedom, authority, tradition and the modern age. At the time of her death in 1975, she had completed the first two volumes of her last major philosophical work, The Life of the Mind, which examined the three fundamental faculties of the vita contemplativa (thinking, willing, judging).

『极权主义的起源』 这本书我读了9个月,整体来说驾驭它有些困难,一方面对欧洲历史没有那么详细的了解,另一方面是政治哲学的思辨有些难懂,我只能想起某些片段,这或许是收获的结果吧,每一本书都是一个开阔的世界,虽然我是精读,但并不能掌握它。 我读这本书经常会联想...

评分【按语: 《极权主义的起源》是一部优雅而丰厚的思想史作品,用被抛弃的人、权力、阶级、种族等几个音符,巧妙精微地编织出了19到20世纪的西方思想-政治变迁的某一历史轮廓(反犹主义-帝国主义-极权主义),是一曲接续大革命到极权主义这一癫狂顶峰嘎然而止的悲歌。这里阿伦特...
评分最近回顾了一下汉娜阿伦特的这本政治哲学经典读物。再读一遍,感受又深了一层。这里简单记录一二。 汉娜认为,在人类历史上出现过几种统治模式:君主制和独裁制 (一人说了算)、贵族政治和寡头政治(少数精英说了算),民主政治和暴民政治(大多数人说了算)。而“极权主义”...

Generally regarded as the definitive work on totalitarianism, this book is an essential component of any study of twentieth-century political movements. Arendt was one of the first to recognize that Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union were two sides of the same coin rather than opposing philosophies of Right and Left. “With the Origins of Totalitarianism Hannah Arendt emerges as the most original and profound-therefore the most valuable-political theoretician of our times” (New Leader). Index.
这本书看到过原文.阿伦特的英文长句串联,文气汤汤,完全不想读。哈哈。
评分Unfinished.
评分很难说政治权利高于生存的权利,但对于人的尊严的说法依旧毫无抵抗力。霍布斯真的被批得体无完肤。
评分快带我回去!我被Kukathas洗脑了…
评分第十三章极为精彩的结尾,将整本书前面所有的论述完全上升到了另一个维度,算是arendt后期著作对thinking/acting/the human condition思考的转折点。中英文标题一直没有改导致很多人对此书的误解还体现在origin,arendt一直在强调的是element。第九章the right to have rights也算是打开了当代人权研究中很大的一扇门。arendt的论述很多时候是很啰嗦一直想试图引导读者注意其中几点(经常有种写一半忘一半的感觉orz),但提出的每个概念总是有着令人诧异的深度。还是比较喜欢arendt后期的书
