We're reading The Life of the Mind, Hannah Arendt’s unfinished final work. In it, she focuses on three basic mental activities—thinking, willing, and judging—and their relation to the world of appearances and to the human capacity for moral and political action. The new critical edition makes available in print, for the first time, the text of the typescripts as Arendt left them, complemented by a wealth of previously unpublished material, detailed annotations, and extensive scholarly commentary. We will also be referring to Mary McCarthy's edition for increased accessibility.Free to HAC members and to Bard students, staff, and faculty! Email arendt@bard.edu for the Zoom link.
