In 'Love and Saint Augustine', Hannah Arendt examines the concept of love in the works of Saint Augustine, focusing on three forms: love as craving, love for the Creator, and neighborly love.
This work, influenced by Martin Heidegger and Karl Jaspers, explores themes that would recur throughout Arendt's career, including 'amor mundi' (love of the world) and 'natality'.
The book provides insights into Arendt's early philosophical development and its connection to her later influential works.
