Aharon Meytahl on Arendt and Heidegger
The relations and the affair between Hanna Arendt and Martin Heidegger sound as a pulp fiction story. At the time the affair began, he was magnetic lecturer, university professor about to publish, according to many, the most important philosophy book in the 20th century. He was 35 years old, married with children, a gentile who studied under Husserel. She was 18 years old promising student of philosophy, a Jew. The affair lasted four years. Then, he joined the Nazi party, severed his relations with all his Jewish acquaintances and terminated the affair with Arendt. She left Germany, came to New York and became one of the most prominent intellectuals of 'our crowd' in the city. After the war, they met again.

Now, the once all powerful Heidegger, and his wife which was even more ardent Nazi than he, both apply for help from the Jewess, the lover. And she, with her huge ego, agrees to help. Could there be a more satisfactory revenge? Roazen's article is titled 'Soft-Hearted Hannah.' He may be mistaken.
