Weisman Tama - Hannah Arendt and Karl Marx

I want to give special thanks to Bill Martin for his support, guidance and friendship since my early days in graduate school. He has been a mentor to me in every sense of the word.

I owe a great deal to the faculty of the Department of Philosophy at DePaul University. Peg Birmingham, Tina Chanter, and Peter Steeves were most generous with their time and provided many insightful comments and questions on the earliest version of this text.

Thanks to Joe Messina, for our conversations on Hannah Arendt and for your careful reading of several chapters of this book.

I am indebted to Dominican University for a summer research grant in the summer of 2012, and to Jeff Carlson, Dean of the Rosary College of Arts and Sciences, for his unwavering support. Thanks go to all of my colleagues at Dominican University.

I owe a debt of gratitude to Gerome Kohn for his kind and generous assistance while I was doing research at the Hannah Arendt Center at The New School. His stories and remembrances of Hannah Arendt made her come to life for me.

I am grateful to Kathleen League for her expert editing, and to Beth Wallace for her friendship and gentle but firm prodding when things were going slowly.

Thanks to my parents who supported my love of reading and thirst for knowledge from a very young age, and to my sister, Stephanie, who has always been a source of inspiration. Thanks to Yeni and Dante who have been there through it all. I cannot forget to thank Oz, Leo, and Rosa who forced me to go for walks, play ball, run around the yard, go to the dog beach and so get away from the computer at least temporarily to clear my mind.

I did much of the work on this book surrounded by the beauty of the Kettle Moraine State Forest in Wisconsin. I am most grateful for this, and give thanks to all who help preserve and care for our earthly home.

So many people have made the writing this book possible. Thank you to all of the unnamed who have supported, loved, poked, prodded, laughed, and cried with me throughout the years.

Finally, my gratitude to Mechthild without whose love, friendship, and support I could not have written this book.
