The book Pisma 1925–1975 in druga pričevanja includes correspondence between Hannah Arendt, the German-born American political theorist and philosopher of Jewish descent, and her former professor, the philosopher Martin Heidegger. The letters reveal their complex personal and intellectual relationship, providing a unique insight into their thoughts, feelings and reactions to key events of the 20th century, including Nazism, wartime and post-war reflections. Illuminating, subtle and intimate, the correspondence offers a fascinating glimpse into the inner lives of two extraordinary thinkers.
