WCGS Grimm Lecture 2020 - Thinking Itself is Dangerous: Reading Hananh Arendt Now
Thursday, March 19, 2020 7:00 pm - 7:00 pm EDT (GMT -04:00)

WCGS Grimm 2020 Lecture - Thinking Itself is Dangerous

How can Arendt’s work in Origins and one of her other masterpieces, The Human Condition from 1958, help us understand our contemporary political moment? How have our political conditions changed in the 21st century? How has digital media technology transformed social relations? Is it possible to stop and think about what we are doing today? Hannah Arendt’s work is not a roadmap into the future, but it can help us orient ourselves to the present political crises and, perhaps in the process, teach us to love the world.
