Hannah Arendt (1964) - What Remains? (Full Interview with Günter Gaus) 

When she took the first drag of the cigarette in the middle of her insisting that she wasn't a philosopher, I knew this was going to be a good one. What an incredible intellect.

This entire interview made me smile because of her casual, relaxed tone, the cigarettes, the smiling, and the expression that she "had to understand." Amazing woman and amazing interview. Thank you.

Hanna Arendt is so relevant today! Especially in the light of the Russian-Ukrainian war..... So precious to hear her speak... Thanks so much for sharing!

What a wonderful human being was Hannah Arendt; her views ,scholarship and prescient wisdom remain as fresh and relevant today..

That heartfelt compliment she paid to her teacher, Jaspers, applies to her as well. I wish we had someone of her calibre in the public sphere today.

Hannah Arendt speaks a seemingly colloquial German and chats about topics that are extremely complex and therefore problematic. You might mistakenly think you can only half listen to her, everything she says sounds so simple. The fact is, she interprets socio-political conditions and thus gives us an overview that practically and theoretically touches all areas of our [socio-political] existence, and at the highest level.

The best interview I saw since years. She is really sharp, subtile and precise in her statements and analysis, it is clear that her high expectations for others do apply for her as well, and she is demanding a lot from herself, to have been able to write what she wrote...

If you concentrate not on the subtitles but on the German they speak, then it is impressive how clear and precise they formulate, and also each intervention sharpens the expressed words into ultimate distinguished unambiguous precision. In works such as Life of the Mind, published ten years later than this interview, it goes beyond politics and it can no longer be played off as political theory.

This is pure gold, thank you for such impeccable work!

Thank you for interpreting Arendt. The English translation is useful and motivated me to study her.

Kendi dilimde yazmak istedim: Kadının konuştuğu yer nasıl da aydınlanıyor. Çok değerli bir ruh. Iyi ki fikirlerini duyma şansını elde ettik. A precious soul, lighting up the room when speaking. Its a privilege and pleasure to have the oppurtunity to hear her thoughts.

Was für eine Denkerin! Und auch G. Gaus größtes Lob: Er lässt H. Arendt das letzte Wort, enthält sich der Floskel "Vielen Dank für das Gespräch!", um die Wirkung ihrer abschließenden Worte nicht zu mildern, sondern ihnen Raum zu geben, damit sie nachwirken können. Journalismus höchster Qualität!

"I don't think any thought process is possible without personal experience."- That's that silent dialogue. Dangerous one. As she mentioned many times.

Good god shes an incredible lady... it does take guts to put your stuff out there... she must trust the goodness of humanity..... i love her very much. This proud smart lady....

Your work is greatly appreciated, mate. Thanks for rebuilding the channel. Lots of love!

This is the best channel! Thank you so much! So happy to have found the channel!

WOW, this is great! So human, so serious but not "academic". Having struggled through many pages of her works, this is so nice to hear the voice!

So grateful to be able to watch this

Thank you for this amazingly impressive interview. I have studied the German mind for about sixty years, beginning with an honors thesis in college. The whole topic is as important now as it was at any time in the last century or so. I lived in Germany a long time and have had very close German friends here in America. I admired the views that Arendt offered in the interview and loved her wonderful ability to differentiate and elucidate disparate factors buried in complicated issues. Shifting gears just a little: I'm glad she lived in America. In the interview, she showed a certain facility for getting to the point instead of burying herself in abstractions. This is a skill she may well have honed by writing her books in English instead of in German. After watching the interview, I would dare to suggest that she had something of an American mind. (I'm aware that all of these comments merely skim the surface). Thank you again for this outstanding contribution to our understanding of a marvelous mind and an equally marvelous human being.

Great video, Arendt is one of the best political scientists of the 20th century. This channel is way better than the philosophy courses at uni.

With all the criticism I have today at the state of our world, I must say that it also provides the technology to see this kind of interviews. What a treat! What a privilege!

I can't stop listening to her .such an intellect and yet so natural and friendly Maroug

This was a treasure for me to find on youtube. It's a pleasure to listen to such an extraordinary woman like Hannah Arend 😊

Thank you for this amazing video!

Thank you for posting this!!!!

Currently reading her book 'Eichmann in Jerusalem'. What a personality!

Best English subs version. German here, but I need it for non-Germans. Thank you a lot!

Ausgezeichnet! Ausserordentlich! Vielen dank, alle beide!!! 🌈🦉(Green Fire, UK)

She is very tough lady When it's come to limitation there is no tolerance. Another an iron lady! We must always give great consideration that they are dealing with another human beings nothing else Just mesmerising when I watch this whole story Thank you so much revealing exactly what happened in that era Otherwise l had to imagine what happened at that time What happened we can not be altered We just had to sccept everythings happened at the moment of madness. They were so young snd they had have lived a life of fantasy world. They thought whole life as "Life is a bed of roses"

Eine authentische und wahrhaft emanzipierte Frau. Eine starke Persönlichkeit, wie es sie sehr selten gibt.

48:46 That's some aggresive eye rubbing.

I swear Peter Sellers must have used her mannerisms for Doctor Strangelove.

The origins of totalitarianism is a masterpiece in political science. I would sincerely recommend it to anyone who is eager to understand the politics of democracy with an opposite view.

A real treasure

A great woman / human being..so different from the shabby realpolitik of post modern hype we are bombarded with now in these stupid times

21:08 yep.

Philosophy and politics are polar opposites. Philosophy deals with what is and what is possible. Politics is a business wherein the goal is to concentrate money & power into the hands of a small group of men.

GOAT

But she contradicts herself: first she says she has to write to understand, and then she says she knows everything she is going to write beforehand; the act of writing is very quick. Am I wrong?

"Fiat Veritas, et peritas mundus" Well said.

Wow! People were actually normal back then.

3:26 Why cannot man be neutral with regards since Plato? What is your understanding?

Smoking on TV xD good ole times

Wayne's Newton? Its shone as in SHON DESH! NOT SCHEINE. RESPECTED

Ahhh yeah the Chosen People!

(paraphrasing) Interviewer: Do you feel much pressure as such a prominent woman philosopher? H. Arendt: I'm afraid I must protest -- I do not belong to the circle of "philosophers". unfathomably based

Hereon

The tragedy of humanity emerges here; the distortion of politics - from agency in world [the true meaning] to 'this-against-that' [the violent meaning].

Jesus, the guy doesn't let her finish a single sentence.

I wish it was a little less " intellectual " and was more plain spoken.

She bought the Eichmann defence that he was “a little man in a big machine “. Intellectuals are easy to fool since they are so in love with “their intellect.” Eichmann was not banal- and the notion that Evil can be “banal” is a disgusting pretend paradox. The Soviets had a lot of information on Eichmann and when USSR fell, we discovered that he was a virulent antisemite and enthusiastic exterminator. Much like reading the ignoble notebooks of Heidegger. I would like to know, under what conditions is “The Good “ banal? Similarly Evil cannot be banal. It is true there is a small “frisson “ - a shudder - in sneering at Malevolence. These are pleasures from which decent people abstain.

Translating "Menschen" (humans) for Men bothers me a lot. TBH.

ukraine and western propaganda. she knew

why are you called philosopher overdose? Philosophy is not a drug
