From: "Stuart Elden" <Stuart.Elden-AT-clara.co.uk> Subject: Re: Heidegger in Germany Date: Fri, 4 Dec 1998 22:44:34 -0000 Rafael, Thanks for this. I must admit that Henk's post was a shock to me. Whatever else Heidegger is guilty of, I was convinced that his nationalism was cultural and linguistic, and didn't play in the racial, biological nationalism of Rosenberg, et. al. GA29/30 - The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics and the remarks in the first Hoelderlin course (GA39) seem to me an explicit distancing from the attitude of the time. GA69 seems interesting on this point - but on your exegesis at least - to be a confirmation of the earlier (? - I don't know the date of GA69) view, rather than its negation. By the way, has anyone else read the recent publication of Foucault's 1975/76 College de France course, "Il faut defendre la societe" (Gallimard/Seuil, 1997). This seems to me an argument about state racism that works very much in a Heideggerian frame. Best wishes Stuart --- from list heidegger-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
