Description:
Lecture by Dr. Di Cesare “Heidegger’s Metaphysical Anti-Semitism”
Dr. Di Cesare will address her findings on works of Martin Heidegger, one of the 20th century most influential philosophers, and his interpretation of Shoah. In his newly discovered “Black Notebooks”, Heidegger claims that the Holocaust was an example of “self-destructions: the Jews destroyed themselves and no fingers should be pointed at anyone except the Jews themselves.” Di Cesare will show that Heidegger was not only the Nazi, but also anti-Semitic, and this without ceasing to play a key role in the history of European thought. She will also discuss what role Holocaust played in the construction of Heidegger’s philosophy of the history of being.
