As Dana Villa shows, however, Arendt's thought is often poorly understood, both because of its complexity and because her fame has made it easy for critics to write about what she is reputed to have said rather than what she actually wrote. Villa sets out to change that here, explaining clearly, carefully, and forcefully Arendt's major contributions to our understanding of politics, modernity, and the nature of political evil in our century. Villa begins by focusing on some of the most controversial aspects of Arendt's political thought. He shows that Arendt's famous idea of the banality of evil--inspired by the trial of Adolf Eichmann--does not, as some have maintained, lessen the guilt of war criminals by suggesting that they are mere cogs in a bureaucratic machine. He examines what she meant when she wrote that terror was the essence of totalitarianism, explaining that she believed Nazi and Soviet terror served above all to reinforce the totalitarian idea that humans are expendable units, subordinate to the all-determining laws of Nature or History. Villa clarifies the personal and philosophical relationship between Arendt and Heidegger, showing how her work drew on his thought while providing a firm repudiation of Heidegger's political idiocy under the Nazis. Less controversially, but as importantly, Villa also engages with Arendt's ideas about the relationship between political thought and political action. He explores her views about the roles of theatricality, philosophical reflection, and public-spiritedness in political life. And he explores what relationship, if any, Arendt saw between totalitarianism and the "great tradition" of Western political thought. Throughout, Villa shows how Arendt's ideas illuminate contemporary debates about the nature of modernity and democracy and how they deepen our understanding of philosophers ranging from Socrates and Plato to Habermas and Leo Strauss. Direct, lucid, and powerfully argued, this is a much-needed analysis of the central ideas of one of the most influential political theorists of the twentieth century. 606 $aPHILOSOPHY / Ethics & Moral Philosophy$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aPHILOSOPHY / Ethics & Moral Philosophy. 676 $a320.5/092 700 $aVilla$b Dana Richard$0873972 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450296203321 996 $aPolitics, philosophy, terror$92464306 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03438oam 2200541K 450 001 9910969184103321 005 20190503073449.0 010 $a9780262347822 010 $a0262347822 035 $a(CKB)4100000008415571 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5787902 035 $a(OCoLC)1083097672 035 $a(OCoLC-P)1083097672 035 $a(MaCbMITP)11704 035 $a(PPN)238406512 035 $a(FR-PaCSA)88870815 035 $a(FRCYB88870815)88870815 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000008415571 100 $a20190121d2019 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aGarage /$fOlivia Erlander, Luis Ortega Govela 210 1$aCambridge :$cMIT Press,$d2019. 215 $a1 online resource (224 pages) 311 08$a9780262038348 311 08$a026203834X 327 $aIntroduction -- The Wright history of the garage -- The attached garage -- Domestication of the garage -- Birth of the entrepreneurial garage -- Garageification of space -- Apple garage -- Reality distortion -- Deprogrammed garage -- Safe space. 330 $aA secret history of the garage as a space of creativity, from its invention by Frank Lloyd Wright to its use by start-ups and garage bands. Frank Lloyd Wright invented the garage when he moved the automobile out of the stable into a room of its own. Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak (allegedly) started Apple Computer in a garage. Suburban men turned garages into man caves to escape from family life. Nirvana and No Doubt played their first chords as garage bands. What began as an architectural construct became a cultural construct. In this provocative history and deconstruction of an American icon, Olivia Erlanger and Luis Ortega Govela use the garage as a lens through which to view the advent of suburbia, the myth of the perfect family, and the degradation of the American dream. The stories of what happened in these garages became self-fulfilling prophecies the more they were repeated. Hewlett-Packard was founded in a garage that now bears a plaque: The Birthplace of Silicon Valley. Google followed suit, dreamed up in a Menlo Park garage a few decades later. Also conceived in a garage: the toy company Mattel, creator of Barbie, the postwar, posthuman representation of American women. Garages became guest rooms, game rooms, home gyms, wine cellars, and secret bondage lairs, a no-commute destination for makers and DIYers--surfboard designers, ski makers, pet keepers, flannel-wearing musicians, weed-growing nuns. The garage was an aboveground underground, offering both a safe space for withdrawal and a stage for participation--opportunities for isolation or empowerment. 606 $aGarages$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aDomestic space$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSuburban life$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aArchitecture and society$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aGarages$xSocial aspects 615 0$aDomestic space$xHistory 615 0$aSuburban life$xHistory 615 0$aArchitecture and society$xHistory 676 $a728/.980973 700 $aErlanger$b Olivia$01792770 702 $aOrtega Govela$b Luis 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969184103321 996 $aGarage$94331795 997 $aUNINA
