„Autobiografia? Mam wrażenie, że napisałem ją za wcześnie…” Fackenheima marzenie o Aufhebung

Abstract

The essay is an attempt to read the autobiography of the Jewish philosopher Emil L. Fackenheim (1916–2003), born in Halle exiled to Toronto, settled in Jerusalem, an experienced reader of Hegel. Fackenheim asks Hegel about the significance of the XXth century, seeking in his philosophy clues, if not answers. Above all, he confronts Hegelian dialectics with the reality that he calls the planet of Auschwitz.
