Description
There is no more disturbing or haunting event in philosophy’s recent history than that defined by Heidegger’s political activities in the 1930s. Those activities and the questions they raise will cast a shadow for a long time to come. The protocols of Heidegger’s seminar – precisely translated and thoughtfully introduced – coupled with the excellent critical essays that constitute this volume are decisive texts for those who seek to understand this difficult matter.
