Titolo:Modernità e crisi della politeia : Galileo e la rivoluzione scientifica nell'interpretazione di Hannah Arendt / Paolo Bucci.
Contiene:In the last section of her important work Vita activa, Hannah Arendt presents a general interpretation of modernity with the purpose of clarifying several features of contemporary society and specifically, explaining the crisis of political actions by mass society. Her basic point is that the birth and development of modern science has led to the progressive ''alienation from the earth'', which has in turn led to the political alienation. The ''alienation from the earth'' is based on the fact that the ''the discovery of Archimedes's point'' was made with the aid of modern astronomy; that is that Man has acquired a new perspective, beyond the earth, from which physical phenomena can be observed and manipulated. Beginning with a largely critical wiew of modernity and modern science, Arendt maintains that Galileo - and his telescope - are at the origin of the process through which technical-scientifical knowledge, combined with other factors, has led to the drastic limitation of political space in contemporary society.
