Heidegger's Being and Time by Aaron James Wendland

Martin Heidegger's Being and Time, published in 1927, is widely regarded as his most important work and it has had a profound influence on twentieth-century philosophy. This Critical Guide draws on recently translated and published primary sources as well as the latest developments in Heidegger scholarship to provide a series of in-depth studies of this influential text. Twelve newly-written essays examine the unity of Being and Time; the nature of human communication; truth as a catalyst of cultural transformation; feminist approaches to Being and Time; the essence of authenticity; curiosity as an epistemic vice; the nature of rationality; realism and idealism; the ontological difference; the origin of time; the possibility of death; and the failure of the Being and Time project. The volume will be particularly valuable to students and scholars interested in phenomenology, existentialism, hermeneutics, metaphysics, epistemology, feminism, and ethics.
'Nobody needs reminding of the significance of Heidegger's Being and TimeAlthough it was an early unfinished work of his, it has always been regarded as one of the central texts of twentieth-century philosophy. Moreover, there is still much to be gleaned from it. It is therefore entirely fitting, as we approach the centenary of its publication, to issue a companion of this kind. The quality of the contributors and the range of questions that they address are more than equal to the task. They help us not only to appreciate what Heidegger is saying to us in this masterpiece, but also to appropriate it. That seems to me to be one of the hallmarks of the best history of philosophy.' A. W. Moore, St. Hugh's College, Oxford
