After her bitter critiques of Zionism, which seemed to nullify her early involvement with that movement, and her extremely controversial \u003ci\u003eEichmann in Jerusalem\u003c\/i\u003e (1963), Arendt became virtually a taboo figure in Israeli and Jewish circles. Challenging the \"curse\" of her own title, \u003ci\u003eHannah Arendt in Jerusalem\u003c\/i\u003e carries the scholarly investigation of this much-discussed writer to the very place where her ideas have been most conspicuously ignored. Sometimes sympathetically, sometimes critically, these distinguished contributors reexamine crucial aspects of Arendt's life and thought: her complex identity as a German Jew; her commitment to and critique of Zionism and the state of Israel; her works on \"totalitarianism,\" Nazism, and the Eichmann trial; her relationship to key twentieth-century intellectuals; her intimate and tense connections to German culture; and her reworkings of political thought and philosophy in the light of the experience of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47614342627479,"sku":"9780520220577","price":3304.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780520220577.webp?v=1775092809","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/hannah-arendt-in-jerusalem-9780520220577","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
