In these lectures, delivered in 1933-1934 while he was Rector of
the University of Freiburg and an active supporter of the National
Socialist regime, Martin Heidegger addresses the history of
metaphysics and the notion of truth from Heraclitus to Hegel. First
published in German in 2001, these two lecture courses offer a
sustained encounter with Heidegger's thinking during a period when
he attempted to give expression to his highest ambitions for a
philosophy engaged with politics and the world. While the lectures
are strongly nationalistic and celebrate the revolutionary spirit
of the time, they also attack theories of racial supremacy in an
attempt to stake out a distinctively Heideggerian understanding of
what it means to be a people. This careful translation offers
valuable insight into Heidegger's views on language, truth,
animality, and life, as well as his political thought and activity.
