哲学家之间的书信一向被视作思想史和文化史的珍贵遗产。这可能是因为没有什么能比它们更直接、更单纯地体现理性与生活的联系或断裂了。本世纪的两位同辈哲学家海德格尔与雅斯贝尔斯于1920午在弗莱堡胡塞尔家中相识。此后他们相互通信至1936年。有经过13年的中断后,雅斯贝尔斯首先写信给海德格尔,由此而将他们之间的书信联系续接起来,一直保持到1963年。他们的书信绝大部分被保存下来,共155封。海德格尔的书信本来发表就较少。而他最亲近的朋友(至少在1933年前)又是雅斯贝尔斯,因此他们之间的书信对海德格尔研究的重要性也就不难想象。在这些书信中的确可以读到许多在哲学著作中无法读到的东西。
Correspondence between philosophers has long been regarded as a precious legacy of intellectual and cultural history. This may be because there is nothing more direct and simpler than they are to represent the connection or break between reason and life. Two fellow philosophers of this century, Heidegger and Jaspers met him in the home of Husserl in Freiburg in 1920. After that they communicated with each other until 1936. After 13 years of disruption, Jaspers first wrote to Heidegger, thereby connecting the correspondence between them until 1963. Most of their letters were preserved, a total of 155. Heidegger’s letter has been published less. And his closest friend, at least until 1933, was Jaspers, so it is not hard to imagine the importance of correspondence between them to Heidegger’s research. There is indeed much to read in these letters about what can not be read in philosophical writings.
