Hannah Arendt (October 14, 1906 – December 4, 1975) was a German Jewish political theorist. She studied philosophy with Martin Heidegger, with whom she embarked on a long, stormy romantic relationship that was criticized because of Heidegger's membership in the Nazi party. She is the author of the controversial The Origins of Totalitarianism.
