"Artifacts of Thinking contributes new and important work to scholarship on Hannah Arendt's thinking. The essays included in the volume take up familiar topics in Arendt's thought but informed by her private 'thought diary' take up these topics in unusual and provocative ways. The book also introduces German scholars of Arendt to English-only readers of Arendt and the inclusion of their voices in the conversion opens up exciting horizons for research and study." -- -Jennifer Culbert Johns Hopkins University
