Heidegger and Husserl
No  phrase so vividly captures the Husserl-Heidegger debate than "the  battle of giants".Unfortunately the battle has its murkier side that sometimes threatens to reduce its protagonists to a state


of caricature.What it takes to a highly talented,original thinker disciple to shrink from an evocative state of scholarly indebtedness to a grudging sense of complain for his guru.Passions


 erupt,sentiment overflows and what not.Clearly the Husserl-Heidegger controversy is the century's most pathetic instance of failure of human communication.
