The central argument of this book is that Hannah Arendt's deserved
place in the history of Western philosophy has been overlooked, and
recognition of her contribution is long overdue. In part a result
of Arendt's own insistence on calling herself a 'political thinker'
throughout her career, this is also due to a common tendency in
philosophy to denigrate the political. This book explores the
indisputable philosophical dimensions of her work. In particular,
it examines Arendt's theoretical commitment to recognizing humanity
as a plurality, which avoids the common mistake in Western
philosophy of theoretically overemphasizing the self in isolation.
Arendt's own personal dealings with aspects of her identity, namely
her Jewishness and her womanhood, work to inform us of this
position against solipsism.
