Hannah Arendt and the History of Thought, edited by Daniel Brennan
and Marguerite La Caze, enrichens and deepens scholarship on
Arendt's relation to philosophical history and traditions. Some
contributors analyze thinkers not often linked to Arendt, such as
William Shakespeare, Hans Jonas, and Simone de Beauvoir. Other
contributors treat themes that are pressing and crucial to
understanding Arendt's work, such as love in its many forms,
ethnicity and race, disability, human rights, politics, and
statelessness. The collection is anchored by chapters on Arendt's
interpretation of Kant and her relation to early German Romanticism
and phenomenology, while other chapters explore new perspectives,
such as Arendt and film, her philosophical connections with other
women thinkers, and her influence on Eastern European thought and
activism. The collection expands the frames of reference for
research on Arendt-both in terms of using a broader range of texts
like her Denktagebuch and in examining her ideas about judgment,
feminism, and worldliness in this wider context.
