Subject: CFP: Critical Assessment of the Writings of
Hannah Arendt,
Dresden, Wroclaw, Walbrzych (31.3.2006)
Date: 22.02.2006
x-post H-Soz-u-Kult
Hannah-Arendt-Institut für Totalitarismusforschung an
der TU Dresden,
Baylor University (Waco, Texas)., Dresden, Wroclaw and
Walbrzych
(Poland)
24.07.2006-30.07.2006, Hannah-Arendt-Institute,
Willy-Brandt-Centre,
Castle
"Ksiaz" (Poland)
Deadline: 31.03.2006
Walter Laqueur and others have pointed out the blatant
contrast between
the
admiration of Arendt's devotees on the one hand, and
the criticism of
Arendt
from 'professional philosophers' on the other.
Ingeborg Gleichauf wrote
about Hannah Arendt: 'Academically correct – for
'proper' and
methodical
work, she is nothing special.” Hannah Arendt's critics
have proclaimed
the
'Arendt-Cult' to be an irrational riddle.
In this seminar, works by the Jewish publicist and
scholar of German
origin
(who received American citizenship in 1951) will be
read and critically
analyzed. Connections between her life and works will
also be sought.
Particular attention will be devoted to her extensive
correspondence.
The seminar has been organised in co-operation with
the Baylor
University
(Waco, Texas). The seminar will be conducted in
English. It will take
place
in the Hannah-Arendt-Institute in Dresden. The last
two days of the
seminar,
we will go to Wroclaw (Willy-Brandt-Centre) and
Walbrzych (Castle
"Ksiaz").
