Martin Heidegger is arguably the most important philosopher of the twentieth century for theologians, and the question of the nature of his relationship with theology remains a source of lively ...discussion. This book offers theologians and philosophers alike a clear account of the directions and the potential of this debate.
While many scholars have noted Martin Heidegger's indebtedness to Christian mystical sources, as well as his affinity with Taoism and Buddhism, Elliot R.

Heidegger's later thought is a thinking of things, so argues Andrew J. Mitchell in The Fourfold. Heidegger understands these things in terms of what he names "the fourfold"-a convergence of ...relationships bringing together the earth, the sky, divinities, and mortals-and Mitchell's book is the first detailed exegesis of this neglected aspect of Heidegger's later thought. As such it provides entrée to the full landscape of Heidegger's postwar thinking, offering striking new interpretations of the atomic bomb, technology, plants, animals, weather, time, language, the holy, mortality, dwelling, and more. What results is a conception of things as ecstatic, relational, singular, and, most provocatively, as intrinsically tied to their own technological commodification. A major new work that resonates beyond the confines of Heidegger scholarship, The Fourfold proposes nothing less than a new phenomenological thinking of relationality and mediation for understanding the things around us.
El sentido de la vida se encuentra más allá de conceptos escatológicos que, en ocasiones, apartan al ser humano de su constitución como proyecto. Este sentido puede estar fundado, desde una ...perspectiva heideggeriana, en el "hecho" de ser-en-el-mundo. Esta concepción da lugar a la necesidad de comprender mejor el fenómeno de la vida religiosa en tanto manifestación de la búsqueda de sentido que sigue interpelando al humano que retorna al fenómeno religioso que procura una respuesta ante su búsqueda por el sentido de la vida y del hecho de que tal búsqueda remite al misterio mismo de existir. El ser humano del fenómeno religioso no está exento de la tentado, considerada por el cristianismo primitivo como una dispersión. Dicha tentado, sin embargo, podría ser un elemento de gran valor en la vida, en la medida que lograra conducir al ser humano a un sentido: la reflexión ante el misterio mismo de vivir. En este contexto surgen interrogantes como: ¿En qué medida la filosofía puede aportar para repensar el fenómeno religioso? ¿Cómo se ha leído y cómo debería leerse el fenómeno de la vida religiosa? ¿Por qué volver la mirada a este fenómeno en el mundo de hoy? Este artículo tomará como referencia principal la Fenomenología de la vida religiosa, de Heidegger, obra a partir de la que se podrían comprender mejor algunos conceptos del cristianismo primitivo para una reflexión y comprensión tal que el lector logre analizar el sentido de la vida religiosa más allá de las instituciones en una perspectiva fundamentalmente mística.
This book offers a fundamentally new account of the arguments and concepts which define Heidegger's early philosophy, and locates them in relation to both contemporary analytic philosophy and the ...history of philosophy. Drawing on recent work in the philosophy of mind and on Heidegger's lectures on Plato and Kant, Sacha Golob argues against existing treatments of Heidegger on intentionality and suggests that Heidegger endorses a unique position with respect to conceptual and representational content; he also examines the implications of this for Heidegger's views on truth, realism and 'being'. He goes on to explore Heidegger's work on the underlying issue of normativity, and focuses on his theory of freedom, arguing that it is freedom that links the existential concerns of Being and Time to concepts such as reason, perfection and obligation. His book offers a distinctive new perspective for students of Heidegger and the history of twentieth-century philosophy.
... a real philosophical page-turner, a book that is difficult to
put down, even given the complexity of its issues. -- Jeffrey
Powell This is a fine addition to existing books on
Heidegger's ...thought... The author has both a command of Heidegger and of how best
to elucidate him to a contemporary audience. -- David
Wood 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.
El filósofo italiano Ernesto Grassi es ampliamente reconocido por sus estudios y reflexiones sobre el Humanismo renacentista; sobre la naturaleza metafórica del lenguaje; sobre el valor filosófico de ...la retórica y la poética; sobre la diferenciación entre dos tendencias históricas del pensamiento humanista italiano durante el Renacimiento, que él identificaba como una tendencia pragmática-retórica y una neoplatónica metafísica; sobre el valor de la imaginación y el ingenio como motores del pensamiento filosófico; y sobre todo, por su afirmación de que Heidegger malinterpretó todo lo anterior.
The Invention of a People explores the residual relation between Heidegger’s thought and Deleuze’s novelty. Contextualising the problematic of a people-to-come within a larger political and ...philosophical context, Janae Sholtz casts Deleuze’s project is cast as both an extension and radicalization of the Heideggerian themes of immanence, ontological difference and the transformative potential of art. Sholtz invents creative encounters which act as provocations from the outside, opening new lines of flight and previously unthought terrain. Ultimately she develops a diagrammatic image of a people-to-come that is constantly in flux and can answer the demands of the untimely future.
