Heidegger's 'Being and Time': A Reader's Guide: Reader's Guides

Autor William Blattner
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 noi 2006
Continuum's Reader's Guides are clear, concise and accessible introductions to classic works of philosophy. Each book explores the major themes, historical and philosophical context and key passages of a major philosophical text, guiding the reader toward a thorough understanding of often demanding material. Ideal for undergraduate students, the guides provide an essential resource for anyone who needs to get to grips with a philosophical text.  Heidegger's Being and Time is one of the most influential and controversial philosophical treatises of the 20th century. It had a profound impact on Sartre and Merleau-Ponty in their further development of phenomenology and existentialism, hugely influenced Gadamer's hermeneutics, and paved the way, partly directly and partly indirectly through Heidegger's later thought, for the emergence of deconstructionism. In addition to being a very important text, it is also a very difficult one. Heidegger presents a number of challenges to the the reader, asking them to abandon many assumptions fundamental to traditional philosophy, such as the mind/body distinction and the concept of substance. The text also introduces a whole host of new concepts and terms and as such is a hugely challenging, yet fascinating, piece of philosophical writing.
In Heidegger's 'Being and Time': A Reader's Guide William Blattner explains the philosophical background against which the book was written and provides a clear and concise overview of the key themes and motifs. The book then examines this challenging text in details, guiding the reader to a clear understanding of Heidegger's work as a whole. Finally Blattner explores the reception and influence of the work and offers the student guidance on further reading. This is the ideal companion to study of this most influential and challenging of texts.

Recenzii

Whether one is an instructor looking to assign a companion volume to Being and Time on a syllabus, or a student approaching this text for the first time [...] Blattner's introduction will serve you well.
A most welcome expansion that now guides readers through the entirety of Being and Time. Students of Heidegger at all levels will profit from Blattner's expert guidance for making sense of the previously omitted - and notoriously difficult - late chapters on time and temporality.
This second edition of Heidegger's Being and Time retains the features that made the first edition an indispensable resource: astute presentations of the main concepts, lively examples, and telling comparisons with other philosophical approaches. A completely new section on temporality and historicality, with reflections on Heidegger's controversial relation to National Socialism, make this a perfect first choice for readers who want a clear path through Heidegger's most important work.
This second edition improves upon what was already the best compact but thorough introduction to Heidegger's Being and Time in English. Blattner's critical interpretation is required reading for anyone who wants to understand what remains one of the most important philosophical works of the twentieth century.
This is the best introductory guide to Being and Time on the market today. Blattner succeeds in setting out Heidegger's thought with remarkable clarity and precision. Beginning students and scholars alike will find this to be an essential resource for exploring Heidegger's seminal work.
