RESUMEN
En este artículo me propongo demostrar que la tradición de pensamiento humanista tiene como base la
experiencia y la memoria, ambas fuentes de conocimiento y posibilidad de apertura de la historia, y que ese
sentido del pensar lo encontramos en Hannah Arendt y en su manera de comprender, y enfrentar, el
Totalitarismo. Estos presupuestos me permitirán destacar que el humanismo consiste en una manera de pensar lo
humano al margen de cualquier ideal y que su punto de realización es la vida de los seres humanos, con sus
grandezas y sus debilidades, aspectos nunca dejados de lado en la obra de Arendt y, más bien, considerados
como la posibilidad de la realización de la humanitas.
ABSTRACT In this article I intend to show that the tradition of humanist thought is based on experience and memory, both sources of knowledge and of the possibility of opening history. I would also like to show that we find this meaning of “thinking” in Hannah Arendt’s philosophy, and in her way of understanding and facing Totalitarianism. These assumptions will allow me to point out that humanism is a way of thinking the human on the margin of whatever ideal, and that its point of realization is the human life, with its greatness and weaknesses. Two aspects that Arendt never neglected in her work and that, on top of that, were considered the possibility of realization of the humanitas.
