Klappentext zu „Penguin Classics / Eichmann in Jerusalem “
The controversial journalistic analysis of the mentality that fostered the Holocaust, from the author of The Origins of TotalitarianismSparking a flurry of heated debate, Hannah Arendt s authoritative and stunning report on the trial of German Nazi leader Adolf Eichmann first appeared as a series of articles in The New Yorker in 1963. This revised edition includes material that came to light after the trial, as well as Arendt s postscript directly addressing the controversy that arose over her account. A major journalistic triumph by an intellectual of singular influence, Eichmann in Jerusalem is as shocking as it is informative an unflinching look at one of the most unsettling (and unsettled) issues of the twentieth century.
