Banal evil vs. radical evil; or, Arendt reappraised
Blog on the Run: Reloaded —
Authority: 436
I recently read an essay — in the New Yorker, I think, although I can’t remember for sure — that argues that on the basis of what we now know about Martin Heidegger, his anti-Semitism is so virulent that it renders him an inappropriate subject for serious study. Never having read any Heidegger, I’m agnostic ...6 days ago -
Heidegger’s Legacy
Apparatchicks —
Authority: 91
Today I was reading an article in The Chronicle of Higher Education about Heidegger and his Nazi sympathies. Well, maybe sympathy is too weak a term.

Why Read Heidegger
The New Republic - damon linker Feed —
Authority: 99
German philosopher Martin Heidegger gets a lot of bad press. And for good reason.

Sporadic Maunderings —
Authority: 118
When I took the course on Existentialism, we read some Heidegger. If you can slog through the word-salad of his book, there seem to be interesting and even useful ideas in it. Even before we started in on it, though, Dr. Levenson warned us about Heideggers history, and commented that generally when Heidegger was ...1 week ago -

Authority: 430
From Catherine Belseys superb introduction to poststructuralism: Q. Derrida is very hard to read. Why doesnt he write more simply? Doesnt he want to communicate? A.

The Chronicle of Higher Education last week had a popular, even sensationalist story entitled Heil Heidegger! by a guy called Carlin Romano, whose main aim seems to be to make fun of Heidegger as a strategy of undermining his influence.

Carlin Romanos Wrongheaded Heidegger Assessment
Brow Beat —
Authority: 129
Was Martin Heidegger Hitlers most willing executioner, or the 20 th centurys greatest philosopher? Is it possible he was both? Imagine what it takes to answer that question honestly. Heideggers prose is notoriously difficult. To his critics, wresting clarity from Being and Time is like trying to inhale the ...2 weeks ago -

Reading Heidegger is always a remarkable experience. It can be, at times, absolutely exhilarating. Other times it is a real slog. Whats remarkable, though, is that none of this occurs in the regular way: whats exhilarating isnt typically exhilarating, whats a slog isnt like your usual slog (if I can say such a ...3 weeks ago -
