内容説明
Hannah Arendt began her scholarly career with an exploration of Saint Augustine's concept of caritas, or neighborly love, written under the direction of Karl Jaspers and the influence of Martin Heidegger. After her German academic life came to a halt in 1933, Arendt carried her dissertation into exile in France, and years later took the same battered and stained copy to New York. During the late 1950s and early 1960s, as she was completing or reworking her most influential studies of political life, Arendt was simultaneously annotating and revising her dissertation on Augustine, amplifying its argument with terms and concepts she was using in her political works of the same period. The dissertation became a bridge over which Arendt traveled back and forth between 1929 Heidelberg and 1960s New York, carrying with her Augustine's question about the possibility of social life in an age of rapid political and moral change.
Book Description
In Love and Saint Augustine, Joanna Vecchiarelli Scott and Judith Chelius Stark make Arendt's important early work accessible for the first time. Here is a completely corrected and revised English translation that incorporates Arendt's own substantial revisions and provides additional notes based on letters, contracts, and other documents. Scott and Stark demonstrate how Arendt's early work on Augustine provides the key to her later critique of modernity. Love and Saint Augustine will be of interest to anyone who wishes to trace the history of social thought in the twentieth century.
"The editors' admirably clear, extensive interpretive essay helps situate the dissertation within Arendt's thought and life, with special attention to Arendt and Martin Heidegger, and to Arendt and Karl Jaspers."--Choice
"Scott and Stark's conclusions about the cohesive evolution of Arendt's thought are compelling."--Library Journal
"Scott and Stark are to be commended for their painstaking reconstruction."--George McKenna, First Things
"A revelation that may force us to reconsider the traditional interpretation of Arendt's work."--Kirkus Reviews
Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) was the author of The Human Condition and Lectures on Kant's Political Philosophy.

Must Read for Lovers of Augustine
2009/3/8
形式:ペーパーバック
I first read this book many years ago, so my recollection is a little hazy, but when I ran across Arendt's dissertation on Amazon, I could not resist making some comment on what was an outstanding addition to my collection of books about Augustine. I strongly encourage anyone interested in Augustine to read this book. The book does have a strong "philosophical bent" to it but is not so weighty a presentation to discourage the educated reader. The book is full of insights and well turned statements on ontology, volition, love, and man's relationship to an all encompassing Creator. Contemporary critics of Catholicism tend to chide and deride the Augustinian project using feminist, trendy Gnostic catagories to abuse a great thinker in the early church, but the reader of Arendt's book will find a sound and reasoned presentation of the Augustinian perspective absent of biases found in current criticism. Another fine book to read with Arendt's book would be the slightly more academic work by Emilie Zum Brunn, St. Augustine: Being and Nothingness.
