Reviews
-
"The essays assembled in this book subtly explore the phenomenological basis of Hannah Arendt's thought, demonstrating how concepts such as appearance, disclosure, world and individuation underlie her understanding of thinking and acting. In revealing both the richness of her political thought and the tensions inherent to it, these essays show why Arendt remains indispensable to 'think what we are doing' today." - Dr. Andrew Schaap, University of Exeter.
