The Other Place

Over at Long Sunday, Alain has posted an exchange of correspondence between Heidegger and Herbert Marcuse. It's a necessary read. Marcuse:
A philosopher can be deceived regarding political matters; in which case he will openly acknowledge his error. But he cannot he deceived about a regime that has killed millions of Jews - merely because they were Jews - that made terror into an everyday phenomenon, and that turned everything that pertains to the ideas of spirit, freedom and truth into its bloody opposite.


Also on LS, there's an interview with China Mieville.
