Anyone can help? Andre-Paul, I have the German edition here. It appears, that it was not Hannah Arendt, who made the remark, but Heinrich Bluecher, her second husband, in a letter to Hannah, while she was visiting Jaspers in 1950. The remark was: "Erinnerst Du Dich, wie ich Dich einmal auf das bei Juenger stets wiederkehrende >hoher und grausamer Genuss< aufmerksam machte?" It is in the note to letter 98. "High and cruel delight" ? Rene ----------------------------------- drs. René de Bakker Universiteitsbibliotheek Amsterdam Afdeling Catalogisering Faculteiten tel. 020-5252368
