  • Nathaniel Hawthorne's Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment

    1210 Words  | 3 Pages

    Leon Trotsky, the Russian revolutionist, wrote in his Diary in Exile, " The depth and strength of a human character are defined by its moral reserves. People reveal themselves completely only when they are thrown out of the customary conditions of their life, for only then do they have to fall back on their reserves." Nathaniel Hawthorne gives us a 19th century example of this phenomenon in "Dr. Heidegger’s Experiment". The theme of this story is that a person’s character, once developed does not change over time, and when faced with conflict and adversity, their true character becomes boldly evident.

  • Martin Heidegger's Memorial Address

    788 Words  | 2 Pages

    ...ate a musician, not elaborate on a perhaps dark future – are one of the reasons historians and literarians have been analyzing this memorial address for the past 60 years. The rhetorical situation is very unique and Martin Heidegger was very brave to give this speech at such a time. As to whether or not this speech was effective is all in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I found this speech to be eye opening and extremely important even today 60 years since he delivered the original address. But for those people listening in Germany that day in 1955, I cannot say whether or not they would have found Heidegger’s approach repulsive or applauded his courage to stand up for something he believed was in the world’s best interests. What can be said, however, is 60 years later the words of this speech still impact mankind – and they likely will for generations to come.
