This volume contains the first English translation of their complete correspondence, as well as letters from Heidegger's wife and son and others referred to in their correspondence. It also contains a translation of J?ger's essay Across the Line (ﾜber die Linie), his contribution to a Festschrift celebrating Heidegger's sixtieth birthday. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJ?ger's and Heidegger's correspondence is of enormous historical interest, revealing how both men came to understand their cultural roles in post-war Europe. It is valuable as well for showing the emergence of themes pervasive in Heidegger's post-war thought: his cultural and political pessimism and his concern with the problem of global technology. The correspondence also reveals the evolution of a philosophical friendship between two writers central to twentieth century European thought, and the mutual influence that friendship worked on their writing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Timothy Sean Quinn, Martin Heidegger, Ernst J?ger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 178348876X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783488766\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Timothy Sean Quinn","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43984296935679,"sku":"9781783488766","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33f6b816-6884-4826-b0aa-2cf8ae770e2a.jpg?v=1683271578","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/correspondence-1949-1975-timothy-sean-quinn-9781783488766","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
