Amor Mundi
Hannah Arendt considered calling her magnum opus "Amor Mundi: Love of the World." Instead, she settled upon The Human Condition. What is most difficult, Arendt writes, is to love the world as it is, with all the evil and suffering in it. And yet she came to do just that. Loving the world means neither uncritical acceptance nor contemptuous rejection. Rather, it is the unwavering facing up to and comprehension of that which is.
