"Death is the possibility of the absolute impossibility of Dasein" --Being and Time


"Making itself intelligible is suicide for philosophy"


The relations between Heidegger and Nazism are a controversial subject in philosophy. Some claim that his philosophy is pure from historical and political contingencies. Others, such as Jürgen Habermas or Theodor Adorno, strongly disagree, claiming that his historical engagement for the Nazi party derived from his philosophical conceptions.
