This was a splendid book to tackle on a holiday. I had read the section on Walter Benjamin before and it was a treat t confront it again. The sections on Rosa Luxemburg and Bertolt Brecht were my favorites, though the piece on the poet Randall Jarrell was unexpectedly moving. Each of these portraits illuminate or fuel Arendt's notion of the public; the limits of this thought become uneasily befogged in practice where one must consider the point Brecht made: it is more important to do good, to make the world a better place than to simply be a good person. The anecdote is related that once Brecht was dining with Sidney Hooks and when asked about the Moscow Show Trial Brecht responded that if they were innocent of the charges then of course they should die. Ponder that, will you. ( )
