The book provides Heidegger’s most systematic history of Ancient philosophy beginning with Thales and ending with Aristotle. In this lecture, which coincides with the completion of his most important work, Being and Time, Heidegger is working out a way to sharply differentiate between beings and Being.Richard Rojcewicz’s clear and accurate translation offers English-speaking readers valuable insight into Heidegger’s views on Ancient thought and concepts such as principle, cause, nature, unity, multiplicity, Logos, truth, science, soul, category, and motion.

User’s Reviews

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

⭐This text is excellent for understanding Heidegger’s relation to Aristotle, and is good background for his project in Being and Time

⭐This survey of the pre-Socratic thinkers brought me up to date with the minor theories that I had forgotten over the years. Heidegger’s views of Heraclitus and Parmenides were not new to me as I had his individual volumes on each already. Definitely a great choice for an undergraduatestudent needing a refresher on the early Greeks and their language roots.

⭐This is a compilation of notes by Heidegger for a lecture series in 1926. The valuable material is at the end with the Morchen and Brocker transcriptions which are written out in full sentences which are intelligible in a way the notes themselves are not. I am finding out that at this level the original German edition is the second step in the learning process. The translations are good but not satisfying (and they never will be).

⭐careful of the money you spend–this is now free as a .pdf. At least as of this writing.
