Eva Stern

Eva Stern was a close associate of Hannah Arendt and played an important role in her life during the tumultuous period of emigration and the rise of totalitarianism in Europe. Stern's involvement in refugee support efforts in Paris exemplifies the collaborative spirit among intellectuals seeking to aid those affected by the crises of their time, and her influence on Arendt's thinking is evident in Arendt's emphasis on experience and human rights.
