Nazis burn books; philosophers write them. But Heidegger did both.

Excellent piece by Adam Kirsch (in Tablet) on Heidegger's "metaphysical" anti-Semitism and on attempts to reconcile what is valuable in Heidegger's writing with the undeniable fact that he was a Nazi in thought and deed.
The piece is entitled "Heidegger Was Really a Real Nazi." It was posted on September 21, 2016.
