Summary
Michelle-Irene Brudny: Hannah Arendt Intellectual Biography
"Hannah Arendt's views depend on internal logic and the way of presentation and rarely reflect a tendency to paradox," Raymond Aron was one of the first to point this out. Elisabeth Young-Bruehl supports this trait, or tendency, with the ironic but well-intentioned phrase; better original than right - for Hanna, it is better to be original than right." "Although Hannah Arendt was undoubtedly aware of the brevity of her letter, since she was mostly in a hurry to start the next text, that she was impatient and rushing into the future, she was probably less aware that she was writing in an aphoristic style, like the writers she admired so much, such as Kafka.
