SUMMARY:Film Screening of "Hannah Arendt"
DESCRIPTION:On Oct. 22 the Stroum Jewish Studies Program is hosting a free film screening of  the 2012 bio-drama “Hannah Arendt\,” starring Barbara Sukowa and directed by Margarethe Von Trotta. A post-film discussion will be moderated by Prof. Michael Rosenthal\, Chair of the UW Department of Philosophy and a Jewish Studies faculty member. \nRead all about it: Prof. Rosenthal’s new interview\, “Why Do Hannah Arendt’s Ideas about Evil and the Holocaust Still Matter?”\, has key historical background on the Eichmann trial and the lasting impact of Arendt’s ideas. \nThis event is part of a series connected to the 2013 Walker-Ames Lecture by Yale philosopher Seyla Benhabib\, who will be speaking on “Hannah Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusalem: Fifty Years Later” on Oct. 24. \nThe Oct. 22 screening of “Hannah Arendt” is co-sponsored by the Seattle Jewish Film Festival\, the Stroum Jewish Community Center\, and the Department of Germanics at the University of Washington. \n\n \nEvent Registration Online for Film Screening of Hannah Arendt powered by Eventbrite\n\nAn overview of the film: “Hannah Arendt is a reporter for The New Yorker. After she attends the war crimes trial of Nazi Adolf Eichmann\, she daringly chronicles the Holocaust in a way no one has ever done before and her work instantly becomes a scandal. She begins getting attacked by almost everyone—family and friends included. What follows is Arendt’s struggle to suppress her own painful memories of the past and how exile begins to define and derail her life.” \nYou can watch the trailer here. \nRelated events:\n“Eichmann in Jerusalem: Fifty Years Later\,” 2013 Walker-Ames Lecture by Seyla Benhabib on Oct. 24\n“The Dilemmas of Human Rights: Ideals and Illusions\,” Philosophy Dept.

SUMMARY:Hannah Arendt's Eichmann in Jerusalem: Fifty Years Later
DESCRIPTION:2013 Walker-Ames Lecture: Seyla Benhabib\, Professor of Political Science and Philosophy at Yale University\, will speak on “Hannah Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusalem: Fifty Years Later” \nEichmann in Jerusalem (1963) is one of the most controversial books of the second half of the twentieth-century. Hannah Arendt’s complex narrative – which originally was prepares as a trial report for the New Yorker – moves at multiple levels: historical\, philosophical\, psychological and legal. At the historical level\, the book was one of the first times after the end of WWII that an extremely detailed historical account of the Jewish extermination policies of the Nazis was laid bare; furthermore\, Arendt questioned the role of the Jewish Councils in this process. Philosophically\, Arendt struggled with the question of evil and the relationship of evil to the activities of thinking and judging. Psychologically – and this is the aspect of Arendt’s analysis which gained most notoriety – Arendt introduced the term ‘the banality of evil\,’ to characterize Adolf Eichmann’s personality. Legally\, the Eichmann trial raised deep questions about international jurisdiction\, crimes against humanity\, and punishing the perpetrators of genocide. \nThis lecture will give an overview of the Eichmann controversy. Although some of Arendt’s claims concerning Eichmann’s personality and activities\, as well as her analysis of the Jewish Councils are historically inaccurate\, Benhabib will argue that her book leaves us with some enduring questions about human responsibility in extreme conditions. \nSeyla Benhabib is the Eugene Meyer Professor of Political Science and Philosophy at Yale University. Professor Benhabib was the President of the Eastern Division of the American Philosophical Association in 2006-07\, a Fellow at the Wissenschaftskolleg in Berlin in 2009\, at the NYU Straus Institute for the Advanced Study of Law and Justice in Spring 2012\, and at the German Marshall Fund’s Transatlantic Academy in Washington DC in Spring 2013. In 2009\, she received the Ernst Bloch prize for her contributions to cultural dialogue in a global civilization and in May 2012\, the Leopold Lucas Prize of the Evangelical Academy of Tubingen. She holds honorary degrees from the Humanistic University in Utrecht in 2004\, the University of Valencia in November 2010 and from Bogazici University in May 2012. She received a Guggenheim grant during 2010-2011 for her work on sovereignty and international law. \nCo-sponsored by The Graduate School\, UW Alumni Association\,  Human Interaction and Normative Innovation Research Cluster (HI-NORM)\, UW Tacoma\, Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies\, Department of Political Science\, Department of Philosophy\, Program on Values in Society\, Department of Geography. \nAdvance registration is recommended for this event.  To reserve your tickets\, click here or paste this link into your browser: https://www.grad.washington.edu/lectures/seyla-benhabib.shtml  \nThe complete lineup for the 2013-14 public lecture series offered by the UW Graduate School can be viewed at this link: https://www.grad.washington.edu/lectures/ .
