The Question of German Guilt
by
KARL JASPERS
$5.00
These lectures, delivered at Heidelberg University by the out–
standing European philosopher shortly after the Nazi govern–
ment fell, attracted wide attention among German intellectuals
and students. Making neither an evasive apology nOt' a whole–
sale condemnation, Jaspers distinguishes between types of guilt
and degrees of responsibility. His unblemished record as an
anti-Nazi, as well as his sentient mind, have made Jaspers a
rallying center for those of his countrymen who wish to recon–
struct a free and democratic Germany. His book will be valued
as a rational discussion of a problem which has so far evoked
only heat and fury.
