“Autoannientamento degli ebrei” e tecnica moderna. Per una rilettura dei Quaderni Neri heideggeriani

“The Self-Annihilation of the Jews” and Modern Technology:
A Reinterpretation of Heidegger’s Black Notebooks
What is the meaning of the passages in the Black Notebooks (Notes
I–V) in which Martin Heidegger seems to speak of the “self-annihilation
of the Jews”? Should such statements be regarded as a form of antisemi￾tism, and if so, how are they related to his philosophy as a whole?
This article offers a theoretical reinterpretation of Heidegger’s Reflec￾tions and Notes from the period 1930-1948, arguing that these contro￾versial remarks are intrinsically linked to his conception of modernity
and technology. Within this framework, they appear as part of a broader,
internally coherent philosophical system – one that nonetheless reveals
certain lexical and conceptual tensions.
By situating these statements within Heidegger’s critique of modern
rationality and the ego cogito, the paper reaffirms the theoretical signi￾ficance of the Black Notebooks for any philosophical inquiry into the es￾sence of technology.
