Thinking on the Edge of Tradition. Arendt’s Reading of Marx
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to determine the role, not always unambiguous, that Karl Marx plays in Hannah Arendt’s endeavour of outlining a thought of the political free from metaphysical categories. Both a modern thinker of labour, History and violence, and at the same time the last tie to the forgotten Greek, pre-philosophical experience of the political, the keys of the Arendt’s dialogue with Marx help to illuminate Arendt’s own theoretical project.Downloads
