MADRID GOMEZ TAGLE, Marcela. On the concept of forgiveness in Hannah Arendt´s thinking. Prax. filos. [online]. 2008, n.26, pp.131-150. ISSN 0120-4688.

Even though HannahArendt do not develops neither explicitly nor exhaustively the concept of forgiveness, its relevancy in her thought can be glimpsed considering her statement, in her article about Bertolt Brecht (1948), to the effect that: “judgment and forgiveness are the two faces of the same coin.” Despite its early formulation, this statement gives account of the importance that the concept of forgiveness would take in her political reflections. The pretension of this paper is to reconstruct this concept and to show its relevancy within her work, taking as a basis the commentaries and notes along her texts.

Palavras-chave : Hannah Arendt; Forgiveness.
