Ponderings XII–XV is third in a series of four "Black Notebooks"
which Martin Heidegger composed in the early years of World War II.
As always with Heidegger, the thoughts expressed here are not
superficial reflections on current events, but instead penetrate
deeply into them in order to contemplate their historical
importance. Throughout his ponderings, Heidegger meditates on the
call for an antidote to the rampant technological attitude which
views all things with a dismissive consumer mentality. Although
this volume caused quite a scandal when originally published in
German due to references to World-Judaism, English readers with
access to the full text can now judge for themselves what Heidegger
means in his use of that term. In style, this notebook is less
aphoristic and more sustained than the previous ones, but remains
probing, challenging, and fascinating.
