Otto Adolf Eichmann, figlio di Karl Adolf e di Maria Schefferling, catturato in un sobborgo di Buenos Aires la sera dell'11 maggio 1960, trasportato in Israele nove giorni dopo e tradotto dinanzi al Tribunale distrettuale di Gerusalemme l'11 aprile 1961, doveva rispondere di 15 imputazioni. Aveva commesso, in concorso con altri, crimini contro il popolo ebraico e numerosi crimini di guerra sotto il regime nazista. L'autrice assiste al dibattimento in aula e negli articoli scritti per il "New Yorker", sviscera i problemi morali, politici e giuridici che stanno dietro il caso Eichmann.

This classic, definitive account of totalitarianism traces the emergence of modern racism as an "ideological weapon for imperialism", beginning with the rise of anti-Semitism in Europe in the 19th century and continuing through the New Imperialism period from 1884 to World War I.

A work of striking originality, 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.

Hannah Arendt und Mary McCarthy lernen sich 1945 in einer Bar in Manhattan kennen, werden Freundinnen und schreiben sich über fünfundzwanzig Jahre lang Briefe. Es sind Dokumente eines unverbrüchlichen Vertrauens, zugleich ein beispiellos offener Dialog zweier intelligenter Frauen, die beherzt und unvoreingenommen über alles sprachen, was sie bewegte: Politik, Moral, ihre Bücher, ihre Männer. Hier begegnen sich Judentum und Katholizismus, europäische Bildung und politische Kultur Amerikas, deutsche Universitätstradition und Upper-Class-College-Erziehung.

A partir del juicio que en 1961 se llevó a cabo contra Adolf Eichmann, teniente coronel de la SS y uno de los mayores criminales de la historia, Hannah Arendt estudia en este ensayo las causas que propiciaron el Holocausto y el papel equívoco que desempeñaron en tal genocidio los consejos judíos—cuestión que, en su época, fue motivo de una airada controversia—, así como la naturaleza y la función de la justicia, aspecto que la lleva a plantear la necesidad de instituir un tribunal internacional capaz de juzgar crímenes contra la humanidad.

In Love and Saint Augustine, political science professor Joanna Vecchiarelli Scott and philosophy professor Judith Chelius Stark make this important early work accessible for the first time. Here is a completely corrected and revised English translation that incorporates Arendt's own substantial revisions and provides additional notes based on letters, contracts, and other documents as well as the recollections of Arendt's friends and colleagues.

Walter Benjamin was an icon of criticism, renowned for his insight on art, literature, and philosophy. This volume includes his views on Kafka, with whom he felt a close personal affinity; his studies on Baudelaire and Proust; and his essays on Leskov and Brecht’s epic theater. Illuminations also includes his penetrating study “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction”, an enlightening discussion of translation as a literary mode, and his theses on the philosophy of history.

This podcast offers close readings of Arendt’s books alongside engaging interviews and thought-provoking conversations in the spirit of Hannah Arendt, who thought loving the world means neither uncritical acceptance nor contemptuous rejection, but the unwavering facing up to and comprehension of that which is.

La correspondencia que la autora de Eichmann en Jerusalén o Los orígenes del totalitarismo mantuvo a lo largo de veinticinco años con Mary McCarthy, una de las novelistas y ensayistas norteamericanas más brillantes del pasado siglo, constituye, en efecto, un diálogo inteligentísimo, edificante, ameno e iluminador sobre la historia y la cultura de....

Publicado en Estados Unidos en los años sesenta pero inédito hasta hoy en español -y en alemán-, este ensayo refleja el rigor y la fuerza del pensamiento político de Hannah Arendt y condensa con precisión y maestría sus reflexiones sobre la libertad, de gran calado y capaces de conectar de manera asombrosa con los desafíos y peligros de nuestro tiempo.

Was ist Freiheit, und was bedeutet sie uns? Begreifen wir sie nur als die Abwesenheit von Furcht und von Zwängen, oder meint Freiheit nicht vielmehr auch, sich an gesellschaftlichen Prozessen zu beteiligen, eine eigene politische Stimme zu haben, um von anderen gehört, erkannt und schließlich erinnert zu werden? Und: Haben wir diese Freiheit einfach, oder wer gibt sie uns, und kann man sie uns auch wieder wegnehmen? In diesem auf Deutsch bisher unveröffentlichten Essay zeichnet Hannah Arendt die historische Entwicklung des Freiheitsbegriffs nach.

L'homme se tient sur une brèche, dans l'intervalle entre le passé révolu et l'avenir infigurable. Il ne peut s'y tenir que dans la mesure où il pense, brisant ainsi, par sa résistance aux forces du passé infini et du futur infini, le flux du temps indifférent. Chaque génération nouvelle, chaque homme nouveau doit redécouvrir laborieusement l'activité de pensée. Longtemps, pour ce faire, on put recourir à la tradition. Or nous vivons, à l'âge moderne, l'usure de la tradition, la crise de la culture.

Rahel Varnhagen: The Life of a Jewish Woman is the biography of a remarkable, complicated, troubled, passionate woman, an important figure in German romanticism, the person who in a sense founded the Goethe cult that would become central to German cultural life in the 19th century, as well as someone who confronted with unusual determination and bore the burden of being both a woman in a man's world and an assimilated Jew in Germany.

Hannah Arendt vidste, hvad det vil sige at flygte. I 1933 tog hun, som mange andre tyske jøder, flugten fra det nazistiske Tyskland gennem Europa og til New York. Her brugte hun resten af sit liv på at tænke og skrive - ikke mindst om flygtninge, statsløshed og rettigheder. I denne bog samles tre af Arendts vigtigste flygtningetekster. Hannah Arendts personlige fortælling om at være flygtning er så stærk, at den bliver tidsløs.
