I watched "Hannah Arendt" at the lecture last Saturday. At the end of the film, Arendt was lying in bed without close-up, and then the screen disappeared into the night. Rather than devoting much of the film to explaining Arendt's "banal evil," the film is intended to show how a female scholar...

(Written by Zhi Ning on November 23, 2013) As one of the greatest and most original thinkers and political theorists of the 20th century, Hannah Arendt's life was full of ups and downs. Identity, Heidegger's favorite students, his encounters during World War II, his achievements in philosophical...

I have always doubted the definition of a biopic, how a person's life can be shown in two or three hours. Rather than being ambitious about filming someone's life and making it look like a slideshow, it's better to be down-to-earth and film critical moments or ordinary life. Seeing that "Hannah...

Just like at the end of the movie, her former friend said, "play yourself as a German intellectual who looks down on the Jews". Indeed, Hannah Arendt pondered the banal evil of Einchmann, a "killing machine" from a philosophical height, and wrote "Eichmann in Jerusalem". Her summary is "thinking,...

A few points: 1. How should real fairness and justice be achieved, based on the code system, moral inference or rational scientific analysis of variable human nature? It is absolutely impossible to be perfect, but justice is still the aspiration of society, and it can gradually become stronger. 2....

In 1963, The New Yorker published five articles on the trial of Adolf Eichmann. Eichmann was the head of Section 4, Division B, Division 4, National Security Department of the Nazi German SS; that was the Gestapo [1] department devoted to "Jewish affairs." These articles by political thinker and...

http://yuanhan.github.io/2013/11/19/hannah-arendt/ "Hannah Arendt" is still worth watching. The film completes the account of Hannah Arendt's coverage of the Eichmann trial in the everyday life of a high-ranking intellectual. We see female professors complaining about their husbands, the urgency of...

First of all, it should be admitted that banal evil is clearly established and, moreover, a contribution of Arendt to ethics. Of course, this question has to be understood within Arendt's theoretical framework. His explanation of the Eichmann event is a complete theoretical innovation, and it also...

Actually, I've never been a fan of biopics. I don't like to watch biopics, I don't like to watch documentaries, I don't like to watch old movies. As a result, I just watched Beauvoir, Queen of Existentialism, and then watched Arendt. Looking at it, I know that I am in a faraway place where only 50+...
