In the first session of the course, we will watch a movie titled Hannah Arendt. It focuses on her report written for The New Yorker, which became a book, Eichmann in Jerusalem: The Banality of Evil. During the following three sessions, we will attempt to derive the broader and deeper philosophy of Arendt from the content of the film.Recommended reading: Hannah Arendt, The Human Condition, Chapter 6, “The Vita Activa and the Modern Age” and Hannah Arendt, On Revolution, Chapter 3, “The Pursuit of Happiness.” Available at the Avid Reader or through online booksellers.
