ISBN: 0253332583 ISBN-13: 9780253332585 Publisher: Indiana University Press OUR PRICE: $41.53 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: November 1997 Annotation: The text of Martin Heidegger's 1927-28 university lecture course on Emmanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason presents a close interpretive reading of the first two parts of this masterpiece of modern philosophy. In this course Heidegger continues the task he enunciated in Being and Time as the problem of dismantling the history of ontology, using temporality as a clue. Within this context the relation between philosophy, ontology, and fundamental ontology is shown to be rooted in the genesis of the modern mathematical sciences. Heidegger demonstrates that objectification of beings as beings is inseparable from knowledge a priori, the central problem of Kant's Critique. He concludes that objectification rests on the productive power of imagination, a process that involves temporality as the basic constitution of humans as beings. This is an essential work for students of Heidegger, Kant, modern philosophy, and contemporary phenomenology. |

Within this context the relation between philosophy, ontology, and fundamental ontology is shown to be rooted in the genesis of the modern mathematical sciences.
