Description

This highly acclaimed, prize-winning biography of one of the foremost political philosophers of the twentieth century is here reissued in a trade paperback edition for a new generation of readers. In a new preface the author offers an account of writings by and about Arendt that have appeared since the book’s 1982 publication, providing a reassessment of her subject’s life and achievement. Praise for the earlier edition: “Both a personal and an intellectual biography . . . It represents biography at its best.”—Peter Berger, front page, The New York Times Book Review “A story of surprising drama . . . . At last, we can see Arendt whole.”—Jim Miller, Newsweek “Indispensable to anyone interested in the life, the thought, or . . . the example of Hannah Arendt.”—Mark Feeney, Boston Globe “An adventure story that moves from pre-Nazi Germany to fame in the United States, and . . . a study of the influences that shaped a sharp political awareness.”—Richmond (Va.) Times-Dispatch Cover drawing by David Schorr Contents Illustrations Preface to the Second Edition Preface Acknowledgments PART 1: 1906-1933 CHAPTER 1: Unser Kind (1906-1924) CHAPTER 2: The Shadows (1924-1929) CHAPTER 3: The Life of a Jewess (1929-1933) PART 2: 1933-1951 CHAPTER 4: Stateless Persons (1933-1941) CHAPTER 5: Loyalty Is the Sign of Truth (1941-1948) CHAPTER 6: A Private Face in Public Life (1948-1951) PART 3: 1951-1965 CHAPTER 7: Being at Home in the World (1951-1961) CHAPTER 8: Cura Posterior: Eichmann in Jerusalem (1961-1965) PART 4: 1965-1975 CHAPTER 9: America in Dark Times (1965-1970) CHAPTER 10: No Longer and Not Yet: The Life of the Mind (1970-1975) APPENDIX l: The Cohns and the Arendts of Königsberg APPENDIX 2: German Texts of Arendt's Poems APPENDIX 3: Arendt's Doctoral Dissertation: A Synopsis Notes Chronological Bibliography of the Works of Hannah Arendt Index
