The Prologue of The Human Condition is an important chapter of the work, and almost no attention has been done to its specificity within the whole of the work, especially the important reference to the concept of Earth, whose appearance in the Prologue is not explained. To this end, we propose to argue in this essay that the concept of Earth as the expression of the human condition set forth in the Prologue “replicates” a discussion by Husserl and Heidegger on the concept of Earth in 1935 in Germany. In order to retrace this parallel, two references will be fundamental: firstly the text by Husserl La terre ne se meut pas; secondly, Heidegger's essay The Origin of the Work of Art. In light of the position of Husserl and Heidegger, Arendt's position constitutes a relevant point of view within the postwar political debate, notably compared to Heidegger's reading of the Earth in the context of contemporary technique.
