RE: Heidegger jokes

"If you don't get Heidegger's superbly wry sense of humour, and if you =
don't think he has written some of the most deeply poetical lines in all =
of "philosophy", then you just ain't hearing Heidegger."

Well said. I'm sure we all agree on this, otherwise we wouldn't be =
spending so much time reading Heidegger! I suspect Heidegger's sense of =
humour and poetic sense were two qualities that made his lecturing so =
captivating.

So Heidegger is inimitably Heidegger. But he's no Holderlin. And he's no =
Aristophanes.
