A German writers aphoristic, poetic, and difficult reflections on Heideggers Being and Time.

There is a beyond of reason and unreason. It is the human psyche.
-- Positive Nihilism

Like many German intellectuals, Hartmut Lange has long grappled with Heidegger. Positive Nihilism is the result of a lifetime of reading Being and Time and offers a series of reflections that are aphoristic, poetic, and (appropriately, considering his object of study) difficult. Lange begins with an abyss (There is an abyss of the finite. It is temporality) and proceeds almost immediately to extremity: The twentieth century was governed by psychopaths. They collapsed the boundaries of moral reason and refuted Kants analysis of consciousness. He reflects further: But who shall punish whom? One mans virtue is another mans crime. Thus Hitler could feel unwaveringly, as he wiped out entire populations, the starry sky above him and the moral law within him, as stipulated by Kant. He considers the concept of civilization (misleading; how should one oppose the remedies of civilization to the egomania, the murderous appetites of such outright psychopaths as Stalin or Pol Pot?), the act of thinking (a fata morgana), the psyche, and Heideggers Dasein.

Positive Nihilism can be considered a pocket companion to Being and Time. Heideggers understanding of Being is nihilistic, Lange writes, and then explains his assertion. He draws on Kant, Nietzsche, Kierkegaard, and Shakespeares Othello for supporting arguments and illustrations. Everyone is possessed of the courage to have angst about death. The question is whether this courage necessarily secures those vital advantages Heidegger alleges--that self-understanding is] the mental anticipation of death. Lange wrestles with Heideggers position, calling on Tolstoy, Georg Trakl, Herman Bang, and Heinrich von Kleist to argue against it.
