This will serve as an invitation to open discussion, where students will have the opportunity to engage in each session with OSUN scholars. The books are exemplary of Arendt’s postwar writing practice, in which she prepared different versions of her writing for German and English-speaking audiences.Įach scholar participant will choose a selection from each book, ranging from a paragraph to several pages, and then present them and their relation to one another to the group. There are key differences between the two versions, including new arrangements of ideas, changes in emphasis and quotations, and new allusions to philosophical and literary traditions. This year’s seminar revisits Hannah Arendt’s pivotal work The Human Condition (1958), alongside the German version, Vita activa. Discussions will be in English.įlights, accommodations, local travel, and meals will be covered by HAHN. This year we welcome up to 6 OSUN students and 6 OSUN faculty/scholars to take part in a unique relational bilingual reading of The Human Condition and Vita activa. The week-long seminar convenes scholars from OSUN institutions to lead a close reading of a classic work of political or democratic thinking.
