EVIL ( das Böse). Throughout his works, Heidegger rarely questions the origin and ground of evil. Yet, in his lectures from Summer Semester 1936, he does secondarily consider evil in examining Friedrich Wilhelm Joseph Schelling’s examination thereof as the cornerstone of his philosophy of human freedom. According to Heidegger, evil harbors an ontological ambivalence by displaying the will’s opposition to the rule of law on the one hand, and, on the other, by marking the emergence of the human capacity to choose between alternatives, e.g., between good and evil. Heidegger suggests that human beings can experience evil only given the depths of being-there’s potential for nihilation. (HDHP)
