Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) was an influential German political theorist and philosopher who came to the United States as a refugee from the Nazis in 1940. She held a number of academic positions at American universities including the University of California, Berkeley; Northwestern University; the University of Chicago; and Princeton University, where she was the first woman appointed to a full professorship. Her works, which deal with issues of power, authority, revolution, thought, and judgment, include The Origins of Totalitarianism, The Human Condition, Eichmann in Jerusalem, Between Past and Future, and the incomplete and posthumously published The Life of the Mind. Wanda McCaddon began recording books for the fledgling audiobook industry in the early 1980s and has since narrated well over six hundred titles for major audio publishers, as well as abridging, narrating, and coproducing classic titles for her own company, Big Ben. Audiobook listeners may be familiar with her voice under one of her two "nom de mikes," Donada Peters and Nadia May. The recipient of an Audie nomination and more than twenty-five Earphones Awards, AudioFile magazine has named her one of recording's Golden Voices. Wanda also appears regularly on the professional stage in the San Francisco Bay Area.
A work of striking originality bursting with unexpected insights, The Human Condition is in many respects more relevant now than when it first appeared in 1958. In her study of the state of modern humanity, Hannah Arendt considers humankind from the perspective of the actions of which it is capable. The problems Arendt identified then—diminishing human agency and political freedom, the paradox that as human powers increase through technological and humanistic inquiry, we are less equipped to control the consequences of our actions—continue to confront us today. This new edition, published to coincide with the fortieth anniversary of its original publication, contains an improved and expanded index and a new introduction by noted Arendt scholar Margaret Canovan which incisively analyzes the book's argument and examines its present relevance. A classic in political and social theory, The Human Condition is a work that has proved both timeless and perpetually timely.

在讀,讀的還比較慢,暫時發一點。 在阿倫特的論述中,善在公共領域是不可能實現的,因為,善就其本身的非世界性決定瞭“善功一旦為人所知,變成公開的,就失去瞭它作為善的特徵,失去瞭它僅僅為著善自身的性質。善一旦公開現顯示,就不再是善的瞭,盡管還可以用於有組織...
評分漢娜·阿倫特怎麼看都像個異類;這不僅在於其行文方式或文體風格,同樣在於她的思考在哲學史發展脈絡中顯齣的與眾不同。 雖然《人的境況》以英文寫就,卻遠離英式寫作的經驗度量,也非美式的平易近人;它無疑受到瞭作為母語的德語之影響,但德國哲學嚴謹周密的論證方式它又是...
評分從去年進入社會開始工作以來,很多概念開始變的模糊,很多行動似乎沒有意義。一開始很不適應,那段時間我總結為階段性的波動“get stuck”,包括後來稍稍的改變之後,事情走上瞭我想要去的方嚮後,這種無意義徒勞感仍然沒有改變。我勞作,僅僅作為一種對勞動契約的尊重與兌現,...
評分看的很慢,也偶有心得。 漢娜阿倫特《人的境況》中提到工作和勞動的區彆,這裏的工作和勞動的含義和平常所理解的不一樣,阿倫特在書中說到“一切勞動的特點正是留不下任何東西,它辛苦勞動的産物幾乎在勞動的同時就被迅即消耗掉瞭。這種辛勞雖然徒勞,卻來自一種強大的緊迫性...

評分比中譯本好讀多瞭,可我還是不明白阿倫特這本所謂的哲學原典究竟好在哪裏。此書充斥著主觀判斷,不連貫的邏輯和片斷式的思維,看似精準的描述包裝的卻是極為常識性的觀點,似乎阿倫特的世界觀有點後現代的味道,但她的思想,隻能說是支離破碎的遐思,並無獨到的創見。
