CADERNOS DE FILOSOFIA, 19-20: HANNAH ARENDT E O POLÍTICO HANNAH ARENDT ET LE POLITIQUE: HANNAH AREND es del autor Marques, António y trata de On November 17-18, 2006, the Instituto de Filosofia da Linguagem (Institute of Philosophy of Language - IFL), Faculdade de Ciências Sociais e Humanas, Universidade Nova de Lisboa (FCSH/UNL) (Faculty of Social and Human Sciences, New University of Lisbon-FCSH/UNL), funded by the Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (Science and Technology Foundation - FCT), organized an international conference on Hannah Arendt?s philosophy (1906-75). This conference was centred on a political problematic, celebrating the centenary of her birth. These proceedings show the great quality of the papers presented by experts from all over the world, who during those two days realized an excellent status questionis of Arendt?s philosophy. On the one hand, Arendt?s thought calls upon the great themes of contemporary culture and those questions that we prospectively foresee as present at the beginning of this century. On the other hand, Arendt represents a unique link between classical Greek philosophy of and modernity, which is not lost in a poor historicism. Her philosophy is a great stimulus for the self- understanding of contemporary man and for the critical understanding of his promising and dangerous political and moral constructions. On the behalf of IFL, I thank Regina Queiroz and João Tiago Proença, scholarship researchers from the of Science of Technology Foundation and members of this Institute, for the conception and organization of this conference, which shows the quality of the work we have been developing for some years in the Portuguese philosophical panorama.
