There are many ways to interpret Heidegger's hut in the Black Forest Mountains of southern Germany. As a site of heroic confrontation between the philosopher and existence; as the petit bourgeois escape of a misguided romantic; as a place overshadowed by Heidegger's troubling involvement with the Nazi regime; or as as entirely unremarkable little building.
