Review # 1 was written on 2011-06-03 00:00:00 Mossy Ok Proper introduction to the works of Hannah Arendt containing the controversies surrounding her writings, her judgement on concepts such as evil and totalitarianism and her legacy. Simon Swift connects Arendt´s work to those of others such as Orwell, Plato, Heidegger and Rousseau. He also explains certain philosophical terms whilst placing Arendt and her work in its context. Points out why Arendt is the odd one out in this collection of philosophers since she had the viewpoint that philosophy and philosophers tend to be highly depoliticized or even anti-political but most of all outside of reality.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-02-04 00:00:00 Kirk Reed Actually, I just read four articles (namely "Fixation of Belief", "How to make your ideas clear", "What is Pragmatism", and "Issues of Pragmatism). Except for the last one, which is somewhat dense, it was a pleasant and inspiring read.
