Why Is Martin Heidegger So Grumpy?

with Chris Miller, M.A.

$55

Martin Heidegger is lauded as a great philosopher. So why do all his photographs show a grinch-like figure? Was he dyspeptic? Unloved by uncaring parents? Or did he find himself thrown into the wasteland of the 20th century? Was his Germany a zombie horror nightmare? Did the dark night of nihilism haunt him, or the atomic bomb, or the threat of an all-consuming technology? And finally, did he propose an escape route? Come then, and explore the world as Heidegger imagined it. Requirements: a cheap copy of a text TBA, a 5$ copy fee,, and yes a thirst for thinking. Looking for 4-15 thinkers.
