Abstract

The article looks at professor and philosopher Martin Heidegger's hut, known as Die Hütte. The hut, completed in 1922, is located in the Black Forest mountains of southern Germany. According to Adam Sharr, a lecturer at the Welsh School of Architecture at Cardiff University, the hut was Heidegger's favored retreat from academe and the place he worked on many of his famous writings. In the book "Heidegger's Hut" Sharr examines the building's significance and the relationship between place and person. Sharr is aided by the work of photojournalist Digne Meller-Marcivicz, who visited the hut in the 1960s.
