Heidegger and Nazism: Ever since the philosophers public involvement in state politics in 1933, his name has necessarily been a part of this unsavory couple. After the publication in 2014 of the private Black Notebooks, it is now unambiguously part of another: Heidegger and antiSemitism.What do we learn from analyzing the antiSemitism of these private writings, together with its sources and grounds, not only for Heideggers thought, but for the history of the West in which this thought is embedded? JeanLuc Nancy poses these questions with the depth and rigor we would expect from him. In doing so, he does not go lightly on Heidegger, in whom he finds a philosophical and historial antiSemitism, outlining a clash of peoples that must at all costs arrive at another beginning. If Heideggers uncritical acceptance of prejudices and longdebunked myths about world Jewry shares in the banality evoked by Hannah Arendt, this does nothing to lessen the charge. Nancys purpose, however, is not simply to condemn Heidegger but rather to invite us to think something to which the thinker of being remained blind: antiSemitism as a selfhatred haunting the history of the Westand of Christianity in its drive toward an autofoundation that would leave behind its origins in Judaism.
