Hannah Arendt: Politics and Responsibility
NYU in London, with the Wiener Library in London, the University of Hannover in Germany, and the Forum for European Philosophy, is co-hosting a conference entitled: Hannah Arendt: Politics and Responsibility
Arendt was an important German-Jewish philosopher, forced to flee Nazi Germany, and who spent the remainder of her life in New York, at the New School, teaching and writing.
The conference will be held on Sunday, 10 November, 2002, at the School of Oriental and African Studies, Thornhaugh Street, near Russell Square. NYU in London will pay the £30 student fee, which includes lunch and refreshments, for any of our students who attend. Those interested must notify me or Pete Campion-Smith no later than Monday, 4 November so we can arrange for payment.
Sessions include: Human Nature, Feminism and Politics; Public and Private Thinking; the Origins of Totalitarianism; and Religion and Ideology in Arendt, to which Professor Richard Sennett of NYU will be contributing.
