“A Century of Violence” - co-hosted with the Centre for the Study of Violence at the University of Bath.
To coincide with the 100th year anniversary of The Philosopher, renowned philosopher of violence Brad Evans will discuss five of the seminal philosophical texts on violence from the past century.
The Human Condition (1958) is Hannah Arendt’s most prescient work, offering readers a vocabulary for thinking about the relationship between thinking and action, the spectre of technology, the rise of the social, the loss of privacy, political action, identity politics, alienation, and the loss of freedom in modernity. What does it mean to inhabit the earth and make the world in common? When, if ever, is violence politically necessary? Can the democratic principle of freedom survive in the 21st century?
This conversation with Arendt scholar Samantha Rose Hill reflects upon the seismic impact of Arendt’s book, as well as its impact in our contemporary era in which our understanding of violence is constantly evolving.
Samantha Rose Hill is the author of two books: Hannah Arendt and Hannah Arendt’s Poems (to be released 2023). She regularly contributes to publications including Los Angeles Review of Books, Contemporary Political Theory and The South Atlantic Quarterly. She is currently writing a book on loneliness.
