ISBN: 0253342309 ISBN-13: 9780253342300 Publisher: Indiana University Press OUR PRICE: $53.96 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: July 2003 Annotation: In Thinking with Heidegger, Miguel de Beistegui looks into the essence of Heidegger's thought and engages the philosopher's transformative thinking with contemporary Western culture. Rather than isolate and explore a single theme or aspect of Heidegger, de Beistegui chooses multiple points of entry that unfold from the same question or idea. De Beistegui examines Heidegger's translations of Greek philosophy and his interpretations and displacements of anthropology, ethics and politics, science, and aesthetics. Thinking with Heidegger proposes fresh answers to some of philosophy's most fundamental questions and extends Heideggerian discourse into philosophical regions not treated by Heidegger himself. An invitation to think with Heidegger and draw his ideas into a more contemporary idiom. |
