[Xmca-l] Re: Heidegger's Notebooks Renew Focus on Anti-Semitism - NYTimes.com

[mike cole]

Among the many things to read, that was an interesting summary of the black
notebooks, David.

Am i correct in interpreting the link between heidegger and anti-semitism
t, according to this account, to run through the sin of rationalism and its
epitome in mathematics as "calculation" presumably linking rationalism and
money lending, and hence the historical steretotype as in *Jew Suss*?
Or is that too simple?

Is the anti-semitism endemic to the philosophy or contingent invasion of a
historical German cultural narrative?
