Lisa Stenmark<\/strong>\u00a0teaches Humanities and Comparative Religious Studies at San Jose State University. She is the author of\u00a0Religion, Science, and Democracy: A Disputation of Friendship<\/em>, on scientific and religious authority in public life, and has written numerous articles on the relationship between religion and science. Her more recent work looks at the ways cultural narratives perpetuate\u2014intentionally or otherwise\u2014destructive practices of science, technology, and religion cross-culturally, particularly in the context of Viet Nam, where she has been traveling regularly since 2000. Dr Stenmark is active in the American Academy of Religion and the Arendt Circle and was a Fulbright Scholar in Viet Nam in 2017. She earned an MDiv\/MA from Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary\/ the Graduate Theological Union, and a Ph.D. in Religious Studies from Vanderbilt University. In her spare time, she runs \u00bd Marathons, practices Aikido, and reads way too much science fiction.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSeminar Topic<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nHannah Arendt was one of the most original and influential thinkers of the 20th Century. Best known for her challenge to the foundations of Western Philosophical tradition, particularly in light of its failures in the face of modern life and experiences. Using Arendt\u2019s short essay \u201cLabor, Work and Action\u201d as a starting point, this lecture will explore one of her key criticisms, which concerns the way Western Philosophy privileges the life of the mind over the active life.\u00a0 In Western thought, what we do with our bodies, how we construct the world, and how we live and act together \u2014politics!\u2014is irrelevant, except when it supports the activity of thinking \u2013 philosophy! Arendt challenged this idea, building on Marx\u2019s reversal, and his insights on the nature of labor, Arendt further divides the active life between labor, productive labor (work), and action.\u00a0 In addition, she also argues that thinking and acting must be considered together and that the life of the mind is meant to serve our life together.\u00a0 After describing Arendt\u2019s categories, and her understanding of the relationship between thinking and acting, this lecture will conclude by suggesting why these distinctions remain important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
