Hannah Arendt
Hannah Arendt’s penetrating observations on the modern world, based on a profound knowledge of the past, have been fundamental to our understanding of our political landscape. On Revolution is her classic exploration of a phenomenon that has reshaped the globe.
From the eighteenth-century rebellions in America and France to the explosive changes of the twentieth century, Arendt traces the changing face of revolution and its relationship to war while underscoring the crucial role such events will play in the future. Illuminating and prescient, this timeless work will fascinate anyone who seeks to decipher the forces that shape our tumultuous age.

“Tavia Gilbert’s fast-paced narration of this study goes far to support the listener…This audiobook is an excellent support for those who might founder in reading the 1963 text unaided by Gilbert’s helpful guidance.”
(AudioFile)“Arendt’s admirers will welcome her excursion into the relatively neglected field of comparative revolution. She is never dull, enormously erudite, always imaginative, original, and full of insights.”
(Sunday Times (London))" This is a study to which the thoughtful reader can return again and again for both intellectual delight and profit.”
(Atlantic)“We are in the presence of a mind of high individuality, great interest, and intellectual integrity… A powerful indictment and illumination, both immediate and enduring.”
(Kirkus Reviews)
