What makes us think? What are we doing wenn we do nothing but think? Where are we wenn we are together with no one but ourselves? In the work The Life of the Mind Hannah Arendt reises these questions and explains that all invisible and soundless mental activities have in common a “withdrawal” from the world as it appears and a bending back toward the self. In this sense, the human being either engages in critical thinking or moves away from himself, falling into a condition of “thoughtlessness” and therefore of inhumanity.

Abstract
What makes us think? What are we doing wenn we do nothing but think? Where are we wenn we are together with no one but ourselves? In the work The Life of the Mind Hannah Arendt reises these questions and explains that all invisible and soundless mental activities have in common a “withdrawal” from the world as it appears and a bending back toward the self. In this sense, the human being either engages in critical thinking or moves away from himself, falling into a condition of “thoughtlessness” and therefore of inhumanity.
