Hannah Arendt: A Reinterpretation of her Political Thought

Hannah Arendt: A Reinterpretation of her Political Thought by Canovan, Margaret. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780521477734.

Margaret Canovan argues in this book that much of the published work on Arendt has been flawed by serious misunderstandings, arising from a failure to see her work in its proper context. The author shows how such misunderstanding was possible, and offers a fundamental reinterpretation, drawing on Arendts unpublished as well as her published work, which sheds new light on most areas of her thought.
