Abstract
This article explains the elemental categories of Hannah
Arendt s Thought. Those categories are articulated around
the three “types of life” associated with labor, work and
action. Particularly, I clarify the concepts of zoe and bios in
relation with the distinction between nature and human
artifice. Finally, I value critically the validity of those
ontological positions.
