O agonismo no pensamento político de Hannah Arendt
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Sociologia Política, Florianópolis, 2014.Diante do fenômeno do totalitarismo e do niilismo europeu que culminou na morte do fundamento, Hannah Arendt procurou repensar a política contra o modo como ela era entendida na tradição da filosofia política. A politóloga alemã identificou uma desmedida da tradição nas tentativas de suplantar a contingência, instituir uma política da Verdade e uma política em nome do Bem entendido em termos absolutos. Contra essa hybris que tende a destruir a liberdade, e inspirada na Grécia trágica e na República Romana, Arendt elabora uma compreensão da política que é inerentemente agonística. Nela, o agonismo, a mútua contraposição de perspectivas na esfera pública, não seria um meio para atingir o consenso ou realizar um bem absoluto, mas a atividade através da qual os indivíduos e o mundo comum se revelam atualizando neste mundo a condição humana da pluralidade.Abstract : Starting from the phenomenon of totalitarianism and European nihilism that culminated in the death of the Ground, Hannah Arendt sought to rethink politics against the way it was understood in the tradition of political philosophy. The German political theorist identified hubris in the tradition in its attempts to overcome contingency, institute a policy of Truth and on behalf of Good understood in absolute terms. Against this hubris that tends to destroy freedom, and inspired by the tragic Greece and the Roman Republic, Arendt elaborates an understanding of politics that is inherently agonistic. In it, the agonism, the mutual contraposition of perspectives in the public sphere, would not be a means to reach consensus or performing an absolute good, but the activity through which individuals and the common world are revealed by updating in this world the human condition of plurality

O Abismo entre filosofia e política e suas relações com o dois-em-um socrático no pensamento de Hannah Arendt
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Filosofia, Florianópolis, 2011O abismo entre a filosofia e a política é uma das chaves de leitura possíveis da obra de Arendt. A separação entre filosofia e política que tem origem na Grécia com a morte de Sócrates e com os escritos de Platão, permaneceu presente durante toda a duração da tradição do pensamento político e chegou ao fim com Karl Marx. Tal separação trouxe alguns danos sobretudo para a política que perdeu sua dignidade e foi tomada por um período de sombras. O pensamento político já não é mais capaz de revelar a pluralidade dos homens, que é a marca da política. A questão discutida neste escrito é: há alguma solução para o problema da separação entre filosofia e política inerente ao próprio pensamento de Hannah Arendt? Para tentar resolver tal problema, de início sugere-se o dois-em-um socrático (eme emauto) abordado pela autora em alguns de seus textos. Porém, ao longo deste trabalho se revelará que o pensar (neste caso representado pelo dois-em-um socrático) é insuficiente para resolver o problema e, para complementar o pensar, é necessário que se trate do juízo, aos moldes de Kant. Dessa forma, alguns nomes serão constantes neste trabalho, pois Arendt dialoga diretamente com Platão, Sócrates e Kant

Da construção à ruptura: repensando o direito a partir da ação política em Hannah Arendt
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências Jurídicas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Direito, Florianópolis, 2010A presente dissertação tem como principal objetivo apresentar a teoria da ação de Hannah Arendt como uma alternativa válida a partir da qual se pode pensar tanto o papel da política quanto do direito em uma perspectiva de perda da tradição, tal como se evidencia na modernidade. Para tanto, o trabalho se divide em três partes. Inicialmente, propõe-se um retorno até o limiar desta tradição, quando a filosofia rompe definitivamente com a vida na polis e estabelece a vita contemplativa como padrão da conduta humana, em detrimento da política. Posteriormente, na segunda parte, a idéia é debater o processo de alienação do mundo, que implica em uma sobrevalorização do sujeito e uma redução da política e do direito à mera administração da vida. É neste espaço, em que os homens vivem isolados uns dos outros, preocupados com seus interesses privados, que os regimes totalitários encontram seu principal apoio em sua tarefa de eliminar a espontaneidade humana, subjugando o homem às leis irresistíveis da história ou da Natureza. Como resposta à ruptura totalitária, Arendt sugere a revalorização da ação política e da esfera pública como o espaço instituinte na modernidade. Portanto, a ordem jurídica, que oferece a estabilidade necessária para a constituição de um espaço público, deve ser constantemente atualizada por meio participação política
Hannah Arendt: "The Human Condition" and the single thought
No full textopenPartendo dalla biografia della filosofa Hannah Arendt e dalla sua esperienza in quanto ebrea durante la seconda guerra mondiale, verrà fatta un’analisi del processo ad Eichmann come esempio di male banale che si insinua nella società laddove manca una coscienza politica. In ultimo, riprendendo lo scopo dell’opera di Hannah Arendt “Vita Activa”, verrà descritta l’importanza di un esercizio della politica continuo e attivo per contrastare il cosiddetto pensiero unico che, secondo l’autrice stessa, ha portato al sopravvento dei totalitarismi del secolo scorso.Starting from the biography of the philosopher Hannah Arendt and her experience as a Jew during the Second World War, an analysis of the Eichmann trial will be made as an example of banal evil that insinuates itself into society where there is no political conscience. Finally, taking up the purpose of Hannah Arendt's work "The Human Condition", the importance of a continuous and active exercise of politics will be described to counter the so-called single thought that, according to the author herself, led to the prevalence of the totalitarianisms of the last century
The light of the eye : doctrine, piety and reform in the works of Thomas Sherlock, Hannah More and Jane Austen
No full textBibliography: leaves 376-401.This thesis investigates the ways in which three eighteenth-century writers, Bishop Thomas Sherlock, Hannah More and Jane Austen embody orthodox Anglican doctrine according to their individual perceptions of the enlightening properties of Protestant Christianity. After situating them in their respective gender, literary and ecclesiastical contexts, I examine some of their key doctrines and analyse excerpts from their works. My selection of passages from Sherlock's works is fairly comprehensive, but in the case of More and Austen, where there is already a formidable body of literary criticism, it is more selective. Thus, I focus on doctrine in More's tracts, Strictures on the System of Female Education, An Essay on St Paul and most especially Coelebs in Search of a Wife and in the case of Austen, on her prayers and select passages from Sense and Sensibility and Mansfield Park. I conclude that, although diverse in their particular kind of Anglicanism (High, Evangelical and Median) and in their choice of genre, transparency or obscurity (anonymity and pseudonymity) and the various narratological strategies some of them invoke to circumvent certain taboos, Sherlock, More and Austen champion the same central orthodox doctrines, defend them against current alternatives to orthodoxy such as Latitudinarianism, Deism and various forms of Freethinking, and promote similar moral and ecclesiastical reforms. However, indirectly (through female characters who resist male representation or control) the women writers subject their ostensibly authorially-endorsed male narrators/characters to scrutiny and sometimes (when the males objectify the women) subversion

"In this moment of alarm and peril": Female Education, Religion and Politics In the Late Eighteenth Century, With special reference to Catharine Macaulay and Hannah More
No full textPhDCatharine Macaulay and Hannah More are conventionally represented as
ideological opposites. Through an analysis which centres on their writings, this
thesis critically examines that representation, and more broadly explores
contemporary perceptions of the roles of women of the middling sort in the late
eighteenth century. It argues that revolution, particularly the French Revolution,
created a climate wherein the duties of women became the subject of increasing
debate. The discussion challenges and builds upon recent work on women's
writing and history, by examining how and why the role of women changed at this
time. This work is concerned with contemporary representations of women, and
concentrates on analysis of primary texts and archival material over a wide range
of genres, including educational treatises, plays, popular tracts, political pamphlets,
historical writing and newspapers - the latter proving a major resource.
Following a critical introduction, the thesis falls into four chapters. Chapter one
discusses the reputation, critical reception and public fame of Macaulay and More,
thereby providing insights into contemporary sexual and social politics. Women
were considered arbiters of morals and manners - believed to play a vital role in
ensuring social stability - and the second chapter examines how the threat of
revolution led to increasing anxiety and debate about the nature of female
education. The third and fourth chapters discuss religion and politics respectively,
and argue that beliefs about the interdependency of Church and State, together with
the feminization of religion, legitimized women's involvement in politics and
enlarged their sphere of influence.
3
The conclusion argues that the political and religious climate provided
opportunities for women to reassess and redefine their roles; while often remaining
within parameters defined by commonly held perceptions of femininity, they
politicized the domestic, extended female agency, and elevated the status of
women
