      Political philosopher Hannah Arendt's exploration of the modern meaning and development of the concept of revolution shows the theorist at her most incisive. Tavia Gilbert's fast-paced narration of this study goes far to support the listener, who should put aside any secondary activity to give full attention this work. Arendt's intricate discussion is made in her hallmark complex sentences, studded with multiple subordinate clauses. Gilbert works with the generous French and Latin quotations with sufficient skill to render these untranslated passages meaningfully. This audiobook is an excellent support for those who might founder in reading the 1963 text unaided by Gilbert's helpful guidance. F.M.R.G. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
