Hannah Arendt and the rescue of appearances: ontological conditions of political life

Abstract
Hannah Arendt’s philosophy mobilized in the face of disappointment at what the metaphysical tradition had categorized as “appearance”. According to her, the philosophical discredit of appearing facilitated powerfully the devaluation of the common world and the consequent decline of the political. Thinking about “what we do”, and thinking about it from its internal articulation, requires, then, a whole reformulation of ontology. For this reason, Arendt traced in his work not a thought locked in the limits of political science, but a whole phenomenology of politics based on an ontology of appearing.
