For Hannah Arendt, human freedom has its place in political action. According to Arendt, humanity itself is revealed in speech and action. This joint shaping of our divided world requires a public sphere in which we can make use of this capacity at all. This is precisely what we see as a challenge in our present. With this in mind, we are dedicating a study day to an Arendtian reflection on the foundations of our coexistence:
10.00-13.30: Introduction and three keynote speeches
The basis of politics: Plurality (Dr. Maria Robaszkiewicz)
The meaning of politics: freedom (Dr. Sandra Johst)
The political in action: acting and speaking (Veronika Hilzensauer)
After a lunch break:
14.45-16.30: reading groups with the speakers,
17.00: Closing lecture by Dr. Ole Meinefeld "Das Wagnis der Öffentlichkeit. Political styles in Hannah Arendt",
followed by a closing with the original soundtrack of Hannah Arendt's laudatory speech on the award of the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade to Karl Jaspers
