"Reconsidering the Human Condition in Light of Our Most Immediate Fears"——Interpreting Hannah Arendt and The Human Condition
Arendt is a highly original and controversial thinker.One of the basic characteristics of her thought and writings is that they are more innovative than rigorous,full of complexity and tension,and dif-ficult to categorize.In terms of her political standpoint,Arendt cannot be categorized into any of the schools of thought outlined in western political theory;in terms of disciplinary category,Arendt is not a philoso-pher,nor is she a political philosopher;in terms of her way of thinking and writing style,Arendt is not a collegiate scholar,and she does not abide by the so-called"academic norms"or other established disciplina-ry paradigms.The central theme of Arendt's The Human Condition is to think seriously about"what we are doing"in a time of crisis,because the loss of the ability to think independently is the greatest crisis of our time.
