The Beginning of Western Philosophy: Interpretation of Anaximander and Parmenides (Studies in Continental Thought) by Martin Heidegger (EPUB)

Description

Through a close reading of two presocratic philosophers, Heidegger demonstrates that all of Western philosophy is rooted in the question of Being.This volume comprises a lecture course given at the University of Freiburg in 1932, five years after the publication of Being and Time. During this period, Heidegger was at the height of his creative powers, which are on full display in this clear and imaginative text.Heidegger analyses two of the earliest philosophical source documents, fragments by Greek thinkers Anaximander and Parmenides. Heidegger develops their common theme of Being and non-being and shows that the question of Being is indeed the origin of Western philosophy. His engagement with these Greek texts is as much of a return to beginnings as it is a potential reawakening of philosophical wonder and inquiry in the present.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Unfortunately Indiana University Press has decided to publish Heidegger in expensive yet cheaply made books. This past year saw the magnificently produced The Event in clothbound. Now Heidegger is coming out with plastic covers and cheap, cheap bindings

⭐It’s Heidegger, what else is there to say!Another brilliant addition to his painstaking engagements with the Greeks, Heidegger at his best.

⭐You should read this before attempting the “Contributions”.

⭐A necessary precursor to ” contributions to philosophy”. It would be nice if there was a glossary of the Greek words used. I had to use google translate liberally. Otherwise the translation is nice and readable

⭐Un écrit fondamental qui fait ressurgir essentiellementla direction radicalement approndissante de la pensée de Heidegger…
