"Some of the fundamental questions of our time are ecological - urgent environmental problems demand newly conceived solutions for the betterment and preservation of life on this planet. In this ...newly revised and greatly expanded edition of Heidegger and theEarth, the contributors approach contemporary ecological issues through the medium of Heidegger's thought." "Amid pressing concerns about wildlife and wilderness preservation, agricultural practices, and technological innovation, contributors discuss how thinking with Heidegger in the twenty-first century yields creative ideas about the natural world that are unconstrained by traditional theoretical frameworks. The conflicting viewpoints in some of the essays will inspire further conversation and debate among readers and break apart established thought patterns." "Unconventional and provocative, Heidegger and the Earth urges us to set aside what we think we know in order to work through ecological problems and to discover new ways of living in the world."--BOOK JACKET.
Martin Heidegger’s radical and, for that, controversial reflections on language were not simply a passing interest in his thinking, but a fundamental, career-long concern arguably as significant to ...him as his study of being. This book traces the intimate connection between language and being in Heidegger’s philosophy, and shows how they cannot be understood apart from one another. It discusses why Heidegger’s undervalued philosophy of language is increasingly important, how it figures in the wider context of his work, and how it is to be approached and understood for our times. This includes the significance to Heidegger of being, the logos principle, etymology, phenomenology, mysticism, and poetry.

How could Hannah Arendt, a German Jew who fled Germany in 1931, have reconciled with Martin Heidegger, whom she knew had joined and actively participated in the Nazi Party? In this remarkable ...biography, Antonia Grunenberg tells how the relationship between Arendt and Heidegger embraced both love and thought and made their passions inseparable, both philosophically and romantically. Grunenberg recounts how the history between Arendt and Heidegger is entwined with the history of the twentieth century with its breaks, catastrophes, and crises. Against the violent backdrop of the last century, she details their complicated and often fissured relationship as well as their intense commitments to thinking.
This open letter proposes, unsuccessfully, that Professor Friedrich-Wilhelm von Herrmann rather than Professor Peter Trawny should edit the Gesamtausgabe edition of Heidegger's Zollikoner Seminare.

Heidegger's writings are among the most formidable in recent philosophy. The pivotal concepts of his thought are for many the source of both fascination and frustration. Yet any student of philosophy ...needs to become acquainted with Heidegger's thought. "Martin Heidegger: Key Concepts" is designed to facilitate this. Each chapter introduces and explains a key Heideggerian concept, or a cluster of closely related concepts. Together, the chapters cover the full range of Heidegger's thought in its early, middle, and later phases.
In his early lecture courses, Martin Heidegger exhibited an abiding interest in human life. He believed that human life has philosophical import while it is actually being lived; language has ...philosophical import while it is being spoken. In this book, Scott Campbell traces the development of Heidegger's ideas about factical life through his interest in Greek thought and its concern with Being. He contends that Heidegger's existential concerns about human life and his ontological concerns about the meaning of Being crystallize in the notion of Dasein as the Being of factical human life.Emphasizing the positive aspects of everydayness, Campbell explores the contexts of meaning embedded within life; the intensity of average, everyday life; the temporal immediacy of life in early Christianity; the hermeneutic pursuit of life's self-alienation; factical spatiality; the temporalizing of history within life; the richness of the world; and the facticity of speaking in Plato and Aristotle. He shows how Heidegger presents a way of grasping human life as riddled with deception but also charged with meaning and open to revelation and insight.
Dijitalliğe maruz kalınan günümüz dünyasında, sosyal medya habitatını yaratan sistemin hesaplayıcı bir mantıkla birden fazla opsiyonu gerçekleştirip kullanıcıları kendine çekmeyi başardığı bir ...gerçektir. Sosyal ağlar, dijital ve sanal bir mecrada kullanıcıların anlık olarak fotoğraf, video, ses, bilgi, haber vs. paylaşımı yaparak, paylaşımlarına kendisiyle aynı konumdaki başka kullanıcıların eş zamanlı erişim sağlayabilmesine olanak tanımaktadır. İşte sosyal medya kullanıcısı olan birey de, söz konusu mecrada üyelikle sanal faaliyette bulunmakla, aslında, burada geçirdiği zaman içerisinde kendisini dijital ve sanal bir varlık olarak yeniden kurmaktadır. Yani, sanal bir mecrada geçirdiği zaman zarfında bir birey, söz konusu mecralarda sanal bir varoluşa sahip hale gelmekte ve bu mecrada bulunma haliyle de dijital ve sanal bir ontolojik zemine yerleşmektedir. Bu çalışma da, bir bireyin sosyal medyada kendisini sanal bir varlık olarak var etmesi durumuna Martin Heidegger’in varlık üzerine düşüncelerini temele alarak kısa bir bakış atmayı denemektedir. Bununla çalışmada bir kullanıcının sosyal medya ağlarında sanal varoluşu konu edinilmektedir.
