  • Mental Activities in a World of Appearances, Sections 11-12 | The Life of the Mind, Chapter 2
    2025/05/02

    In this episode, we discuss Sections 11-12 of Chapter 2 of The Life of the Mind, Hannah Arendt's final work. Host Roger Berkowitz emphasizes the notion that thinking involves a radical withdrawal from the world of appearances, and examines metaphors as fundamental to philosophical language. Berkowitz touches on how philosophical thinking, unlike everyday thinking, operates through abstract ideas that are deeply relevant to understanding human actions and societal structures. Questions from Virtual Reading Group participants place the relevance of these ideas in contemporary contexts.
