[FRA:] Heidegger's 1948 letter to Marcuse [was: The ugly metamorphosis of Telos]

[Ralph Dumain]

I guess this answers my question:

http://www.marcuse.org/herbert/pubs/40spubs/47MarcuseHeidegger.htm

Heidegger's crafty exculpation itself condemns him.  Too bad he 
wasn't hanged for his criminal participation in the reorganization of 
Nazi Germany's university education.

I haven't summoned up the stamina as yet to finish reading Adorno and 
Heidegger, but I noticed that this little shit Fred Dallmayr 
whitewashes this vile obscurantist.

As for Telos' present status as a right-wing rag, I guess this is 
where making a fetish of continental philosophy will get you.
