Arendt on Truth is surprising and complex. I am sure, my interpretation has gaps and mishaps. Please, keep in mind that I am not trying to present you with the most accurate, authorative interpretation of any of the texts I discuss. My aim is to draw a picture that helps us, today, to understand something about our world. Because political theory speaks to me and I hope it does to you. You are always on the safe side returning to the original and seeing if it tells you something. And there is so many interpretations and analyses of Arendts text, you will have no trouble finding many if you search. So, links to the original texts shall be all I provide as a backdrop today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
