First sentence: Kovno, Lithuania, might seem an odd place to begin a history of the reception of Martin Heidegger's philosophical oeuvre in France, yet to borrow a term from Heidegger himself, it is indicative of the unheimlich nature of the series of events that would root Heidegger's work so firmly in French intellectual circles.
