THE HUMAN CONDITION
Book ID/图书代码： 13560006B09845
English Summary/英文概要： A work of striking originality bursting with unexpected insights, The Human Condition is in many respects more relevant now than when it first appeared in 1958. In her study of the state of modern humanity, Hannah Arendt considers humankind from the perspective of the actions of which it is capable. The problems Arendt identified then—diminishing human agency and political freedom, the paradox that as human powers increase through technological and humanistic inquiry, we are less equipped to control the consequences of our actions—continue to confront us today. This new edition, published to coincide with the fortieth anniversary of its original publication, contains an improved and expanded index and a new introduction by noted Arendt scholar Margaret Canovan which incisively analyzes the book’s argument and examines its present relevance. A classic in political and social theory, The Human Condition is a work that has proved both timeless and perpetually timely.
Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) was one of the leading social theorists in the United States. Her Lectures on Kant’s Political Philosophy and Love and Saint Augustine are also published by the University of Chicago Press.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这是一本极具原创性又充满意外见解的书。放到当前的环境下，《人的境况》在很多方面比它于1958 年首次出版时更具现实意义。在她对现代人类状况的研究中，Hannah Arendt从人类行动能力的角度来考量人类。Arendt从中看到的问题——正在减少的人类机构和政治自由，以及通过技术和人文的探索人类的能力得到强化而我们却更加不能控制我们的行为所带来的后果这一悖论——今天正不断困扰着我们。这一新版本正值第一版出版四十周年之际出版，收录了一份改善并扩大后的索引以及一篇由著名的Arendt研究学者Margaret Canovan写的新序言。该序言敏锐地分析了这本书的论点，并剖析了其目前的现实指导意义。《人的境况》是政治和社会理论领域的经典著作，是一部价值永存不会过时的著作。
