For the first time, a collection of Hannah Arendt's poetry has been published in English, unveiling unexpected aspects of her character.

Arendt, a renowned political philosopher, kept her poetry hidden for many years, even from her closest associates.

This new collection offers a glimpse into Arendt's personal reflections and emotional depth, which were often absent in her more widely recognized political writings.

The poems provide insight into her views and experiences during tumultuous historical periods, enhancing the understanding of her philosophical contributions.

The release of her poetry comes at a time when there is a renewed interest in her works, spurred by the resurgence of nationalism and fundamentalist ideologies around the globe.
