Technologies being developed and abundant material life in today's world, but human beings in the"living world"not only show indifference to the social participation, but also a sense of loneliness and puzzled. In 20th century One of the most original of the political philosopher, Hannah? Arendt, with her unique insight, provides a rich ideological resources for discussion of contemporary life.Arendt did not acknowledge as an existentialism philosopher before death, but there is no denying that her thought is following Heidegger's question of"being"all right. If constantly allowing beinger"to be", Heidegger has neglected the tensity between the person and"to be", then has based on it, Arendt proposed person's essence, namely"who we are","who"how to obtain the confirmation are also the question which how the human does exist, so in arendt's eyes,"who"how to obtain the confirmation balanced between the person and the existence relations. Starting from , arendt inspected actual"existence"environment, to published, studied and constructed the external environment of"existence", till the old age without completing , studied and constructed the internal environment of"existence". She has never abandoned to quest for person's survival or the life structure, thought her life. Human as life main body, on the one hand, in the disappearance spiritual life, is conservation between"me"and"myself"; On the other hand, in obvious active life contact with other people's, invisible will show in front of the people, obtains other people's affirm , by this confirmation existence status. Therefore the human"is alive", has asked for him was affirmed in any life style. In the sense, human means life of himself.This article shows Arendt's Anthropology Ideology, especially the theories of lives, and rethinks it. It has mainly adopted the way of literature and comparison test and so on. From the perspective of people to study theories of Arendt's candid life, that contain active life and spiritual life. The full text is divided into four parts:Part One:explicates anthropology thought of Arendt. mainly from Arendt's thought of the main theoretical sources - Heidegger's theory of"this is alive"and the freedom Communication thought of Jaspers, and she considered a lot of practical issues, such as, modern totalitarian society, the survival of Jews and the United States and other democratic political life , demonstrates Arendt's thought Meaning of rich thought of human. Followed Heidegger's questions of being, Arendt proposed "Who are we", which means how to display."Who"display in the front of the other and herself, and in the public lives is agreed by the other, in the spiritual lives is agreed by herself. "Who" shows in such a stage: between everyone in the world, and, in the spiritual life. According to it, infers that Anthropology Ideology, in fact, is lives thought, containing active life and spiritual life.Part Two:specifically analyses the logic and structure of Arendt's life thought. It contains spiritual life and active life. Spiritual life includes thinking, will and judgment. Thinking, one of psychological activities, which is unusual, such as the results of the self-destructive, is behind of action, and after action review. Will only for the future, and the future of uncertainty, which determines that it is freedom. it is the ability to open some new things free will, the decision to move to lay the foundation for the possibility. Judgment is the ability, which under the special premise, from the special ability to seek common. When we judge in a specific case, do not resort to the general rules, only in this case the specific events to find common rules. With the majority's views, give my own actions and decide a more reliable position, which demands plurality human, ascertain others in the present. Judgment asks for the exchange of seeking consensus and is shown in public; it is most closely connected with action and public realm. These three spiritual activities are closely linked to the action, like action displayed, invisible, silent mental activities are also emerging. In introducing the thinking, will and judgment process, analyzed them with the link between the actions. In the active life, according to the nature of activities of the different levels, the activities are divided labor, work and action."labor"is different between Marx and Arendt, labor is life-sustaining activities; work to create a different world and the natural world of artificial, the people here find foothold in the habitat, it is a beginning and an end activities. Action is specific to the activities of people; it is human freedom and expression of their own performance, the actions of people in the performance of themselves. Labor and work are the way and the method of person's nature existence,"who"can be displayed and recognized. In the spiritual life, thought, will and judgment need action to display; in the active life, because of shortage, action need to it, too. In this sense, the active life and the spiritual life are closely linked.Part Three:analyses the modern mass society destroyed the general provisions of candid life thought, to separation between the active life and spiritual ,people become a single"atomic"relationship. So firstly, illuminate active life of the reasons for the alienation of science and technology that led to the development of such an outcome: labor, work and action difficult as separate activities, they are often intertwined, the labor's product is treated as the durable product of work, The work goal method category is transplanted to the action, and human has been alienated. Then analyze in detail modern society Public life's resolution and the crisis of classical republican ideal, which displays: Totalitarianism production with US's nightmare. Finally, facing alienation of actual life, from Arendt life thought, to find a solution that is clarifying the boundaries of private realm, the social realm and the public realm, labor, work, and action do benign, as to beyond alienation.Part Four:under the philosophy of Marxism Context Analysis Arendt's human thought, mainly from the nature of the Marxist ideology, assessment it. Analysis of the first Arendt said "labor" to maintain a means of livelihood, which alienated the essence of human, and it is significantly different from labor of Marxism. Then the essence of Marxism is the Realistic person's labor on the critical Arendt nature of the thought that,"Who"How to being in"life word", then find the limitations and contemporary prices of the life thought.
