Arché (ἀρχή) na filosofia de Hannah Arendt: As modalidades da vita activa e o privilégio da ação

Abstract

Hannah Arendt, in proposing the rehabilitation of vita activa, seeks to underline the privilege of action over other activities of the human condition. When analyzing the change in meaning of the word “arché”, the philosopher prioritizes birth which, in its purest sense, begins it. In this context, this paper intends to develop the importance of Arché in the rehabilitation of “political activity par excellence”, that is, action.
