Hardcover. NY, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1st, 1978, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Two hardcover volumes in a slipcase, light gray and light green jackets over beige cloth. 258, 277 numbered pages. The Life of the Mind is the final work by the political theorist, philosopher, and feminist thinker. This fascinating book investigates thought itself as it exists in contemplative life. In a shift from Arendt's previous writings, most of which focus on the world outside the mind, this is an exploration of the mind's activities she considered to be the most fundamental. The result is a rich, challenging analysis of human mental activity in terms of thinking, willing, and judging. Stated First Editions with 2 as lowest number. Jacket spines sunned and faded. Light spotting to text block edges. Clean, no markings.
