The archive received the following documents from Dr Lotte Köhler (New York):
- The offprint of a journal article by Hannah Arendt, entitled: Totalitarian Imperialism: Reflections on the Hungarian Revolution, published in: The Journal of Politics, 20/I, February 1958. The offprint is annotated with handwritten corrections indicating that this text was prepared for the epilogue of the second American edition of The Origins of Totalitarianism (1958, the first was published in 1951).
- The typescript (with handwritten inserts) of Mrs Köhler's personal calendar, in which all of Hannah Arendt's meetings with her friends (Charlotte Beradt, Heinrich Blücher, Kurt Wolff and others) between 1961 and 1975 were noted.
From Dr Maren Roth (Lasky Center for Transatlantic Studies at LMU Munich), the archive received copies of two letters from Arendt (dated 30 January 1967 and 20 February 1967) to the Encounter.
We would like to point out that we are not allowed to send out copies of the newly acquired materials. However, they are freely accessible in our archive.
