Publisher's Synopsis
The itinerary traced by this book focuses on the political thought of the thinker Hannah Arendt on the question of political freedom. The subject of freedom has been studied by many thinkers since antiquity. For Arendt, Ancient Greece is the great inspiration for understanding political freedom. In her work THE REVOLUTION, she makes several observations about the Greek polis. The question of freedom will be portrayed through the agora and the gyms of the political sphere in Greece. According to Arendt, the American Revolution showed us the human capacity to unite words and deeds in search of freedom in the public sphere. The author demonstrates how modern democracy produces a new way of conceiving freedom in which the public sphere is gradually banished and power is gradually constituted by the government and not by the people.
