GALINDO LARA, Claudia. Hannah Arendt. Narrativity and the Restitution of Politics. En-clav. pen [online]. 2015, vol.9, n.17, pp.113-134. ISSN 2594-1100.

This article attempts to show that in the concept of narrativity found in Arendt's thought, one can find a powerful vein of the author to restore to politics its original significance of plurality, acting together, and the pre-eminence of speech, which allows one to think of the events from the concept of the fragment, as events both singular and full of meaning. Through this idea of narrative, Arendt appears close to Walter Benjamin's interpretation against the continuity in History and the past, and also to an idea closer to memory than History. Both authors consider that we can understand events in their singularity and only in fragments, but full of meaning. This reading allows an approximation to the understanding of the flaws of politics.
