Editorial Review Product Description Since the publication of his mammoth work, Being and Time, Martin Heidegger has remained one of the most influential figures in contemporary thought, and is a key influence for modern literary and cultural theory. This guidebook provides an ideal entry-point for readers new to Heidegger, outlining such issues and concepts as: Fully updated throughout and featuring a new chapter on ‘Heidegger, Environmentalism and Ecocriticism’, this guidebook clearly and concisely introduces Heidegger's crucial work relating to art, language and poetry, and outlines his continuing influence on critical theory.

The artistic side of Heidegger... Clark's text, following the pattern of the others, includes background information on Heidegger and its significance, the key ideas and sources, and Heidegger's continuing impact on other thinkers. As the series preface indicates, no critical thinker arises in a vacuum, so the context, influences and broader cultural environment are all important as a part of the study, something with which Heidegger might agree, although many of the thinkers in this series are also influenced greatly by the productionist metaphysics against which Heidegger spent much time and energy. Why is Heidegger included in this series? This series is primary for critical thinking in a literary sense, and Heidegger is no literary theorist or critic per se.In fact, this is the first volume to deal primary and exclusively with this line of thinking in Heidegger.However, Heidegger's influence extended far beyond what is more traditionally considered his confines of philosophy, primarily the philosophy of metaphysics, with questions of ontology.Heidegger, by influencing some of the key thinkers in the field of literary criticism, has had a knock-on effect far exceeding his actual contributions to the subject.Intellectual `workers in the field' such as Herbert Marcuse, Hannah Arendt, Michel Foucault, and perhaps most importantly Jacques Derrida derive much in response to and reaction to Heidegger, whose influence extends into psychology, history, politics, linguistics, literary analysis, philosophy, science, and theology (and even further afield). My first interest in Heidegger developed out of an interest in the philosophical underpinnings of politics and theology, but this volume looking at his interest in art, literature and the general mindset and development of Western culture certainly adds new dimension to the author of `Being and Time' (yet interestingly, the primary translation of `Being and Time' for English audiences is probably that done by John Macquarrie and Edward Robinson - Macquarrie being an important Anglican theologian I study).To a certain extent, this kind of volume on literary analysis violates certain ideas of Heidegger that would resist the application of productionist theories to works of art.Heidegger is probably the father of postmodernism in many respects, something that might make him uncomfortable should postmodernism slip into being yet one more school in the line of Western philosophical and intellectual development. Clark's primary text from Heidegger for this study is not `Being and Time' as much as it is Heidegger's lecture `The Origin of the Work of Art', delivered in the 1930s and published in 1950.Heidegger applies his principles of philosophical analysis to poetry, painting, architecture and other creative enterprises.Heidegger longed for a complete break with what he saw as the single strand of Western development from the time of the Greek philosophers to the present that culminates in the death of art and the nihilistic tendencies of the modern technological world. Clark deals with Heidegger's flirtation with the Nazi party in a frank and clear way.That Heidegger was a dues-paying member of the National Socialist party is not a matter of dispute; that Heidegger was initially entranced by the Nazi idealism is likewise fairly well established, given his promotion of their ideals early in his rectorship at the university.However, Heidegger also became disenchanted with them very early in their tenure - by 1934 Heidegger was no longer a public voice in support of them.Why then did he continue paying dues to the party?One of the more bizarre elements of Heidegger's story is the intellectual devotion given to him by students, including Jewish students such as Arendt, Marcuse, Strauss, and others, and the level of influence he had on other Jewish intellectuals such as Derrida, given his Nazi flirtations. The concluding chapter, After Heidegger, highlights some key areas of development in relation to other thinkers, as well as points of possible exploration for the reader. Heidegger's thought vis-à-vis Derrida and Blanchot (particularly with regard to destruction/deconstruction), his thought with regard to Ricouer and Gadamer (especially his response to the idea of hermeneutics), and his ideas as they apply to the continuing development of philosophical and intellectual history, particularly in the areas of art and literature, and insure Heidegger remaining a relevant if controversial figure in intellectual development. As do the other volumes in this series, Clark concludes with an annotated bibliography of works by Heidegger, works on Heidegger, and a good index. While this series focuses intentionally upon literary theory, in fact this is only the starting point. For Heidegger (as for others in this series) the expanse is far too broad to be drawn into such narrow guidelines, and the important and impact of the ideas extends out into the whole range of intellectual development. As intellectual endeavours of every sort depend upon language, understanding, and interpretation, the thorough comprehension of how and why we know what we know is crucial. ... Read more |
65. The Political Ontology of Martin Heidegger by Pierre Bourdieu et al. | |

Editorial Review Product Description Though Heidegger is aware of and acknowledges the legitimacy of purely philosophical issues (in his references to canonic authors, traditional problems, and respect for academic taboos), Bourdieu points out the complexity and abstraction of Heidegger's philosophical discourse stems from its situation in the cultural field, where two social and intellectual dimensions--political thought and academic thought--intersect. Bourdieu concludes by suggesting that Heidegger should not be considered as a Nazi ideologist, that there is no place in Heidegger's philosophical ideas for a racist conception of the human being. Rather, he sees Heidegger's thought as a structural equivalent in the field of philosophy of the "conservative revolution," of which Nazism is but one manifestation. Customer Reviews (2)
Interesting and well researched
The place of philosophy Surprisingly enough, the seedsof this book was written nearly a decade before the "Heideggercontoversy" that swept through the French academy in the late 1980s. Rather than denouncing Heidegger as a Nazi or defending Heidegger'sphilosophy as exempt from his political miscues, Bourdieu offers anotherroute: forget the singularity of the discourse on Heidegger, rather, wemust look at the historical, cultural, social, and political context thatmade Heidegger's involvement with Nazism possible.Forget the"man" and let us examine the context... This is a brilliantinsight: we focus on the merits of the individual, even as great asHeidegger, and forget that individuals are actors in a larger matrix ofculture, politics, economics and history.To this, Bourdieu discusses thehomology of the three fields of production: philosophical, academic, andpolitical.In this, Bourdieu argues that there is no possibility ofreducing the discourse on Heidegger to any specific field.We must look tothe ways in which Heidegger's activities and writings both reflect and aredetermined by the constructs of the three fields.By "politicalontology," Bourdieu challenges the statements of pure ontology thathave been circulated by both Heidegger and his commentators."Pureontology" is contrasted with "political ontology."DespiteHeidegger's claims, and despite his enormous philosophical insights, can weever claim to notions of the "pure"?In this, is not Bourdieumaking a stake for himself as a faithful Heideggerian by virtue of opposingthe pure? Beyond the discourse on the Heidegger controversy, Bourdieustrongly contends that we must give up notions of "pure"disciplinary studies whether they be a pure reading of philosophy or a purepolitical or social reading of an event.In the end, as Bourdieu suggests,this book isn't necessarily about Heidegger in any sense; rather, this bookis a practical exercise--that is, a preliminary exercise for a possiblemethod, which must always remain reflexive and changing. ...

Editorial Review Product Description This anthology is a significant contribution to the debate over the relevance of Martin Heidegger's Nazi ties to the interpretation and evaluation of his philosophical work. Included are a selection of basic documents by Heidegger, essays and letters by Heidegger's colleagues that offer contemporary context and testimony, and interpretive evaluations by Heidegger's heirs and critics in France and Germany. In his new introduction, "Note on a Missing Text," Richard Wolin uses the absence from this edition of an interview with Jacques Derrida as a springboard for examining questions about the nature of authorship and personal responsibility that are at the heart of the book. Richard Wolin is Professor of Modern European Intellectual History and Humanities at Rice University. He is the author of Walter Benjamin, The Politics of Being: The Political Thought of Martin Heidegger, and The Terms of Cultural Criticism: The Frankfurt School, Existentialism and Poststructuralism.

Editorial Review Product Description "Caputo offers a compelling plea for a reinterpretation of Heidegger that will make us more humane, and more attuned to the call of justice and mercy than to the call of Being." -- Christian Century "There is no other book that focuses on the religious significance of the many 'turnings' in Heidegger's thought, nor that addresses the question of Heidegger's politics textually rather than autobiographically." -- Merold Westphal A readable chronological consideration of Heidegger's texts that assesses his achievement as a thinker, while pointing to the sources of his political and ethical failure. Caputo addresses the religious significance of Heidegger's thought. Customer Reviews (1)

Editorial Review Product Description One of the most important philosophers of the twentieth century, Martin Heidegger was primarily concerned with the 'question of Being.'However, recent scholarship has tended to marginalize the importance of the name of Being in his thought.Through a focused reading of Heidegger's texts, and especially his late and often overlooked Four Seminars (1966-1973), Richard Capobianco counters this trend by redirecting attention to the centrality of the name of Being in Heidegger's lifetime of thought. Capobianco gives special attention to Heidegger's resonant terms Ereignis and Lichtung and reads them as saying and showing the very same fundamental phenomenon named 'Being itself'.Written in a clear and approachable manner, the essays in Engaging Heidegger examine Heidegger's thought in view of ancient Greek, medieval, and Eastern thinking, and they draw out the deeply humane character of his 'meditative thinking.'

A brilliant, highly competent work with a host of inexplicable printing errors
Misprints Beware
Wost of the series Now, Heidegger wrote alot of books and Inwood doesn't do justice to the rest of Heidegger'soeuvre apart from Being and Time.For example, why is there no section onHeidegger and Leibniz? or Aristotle? or Heraclitus? and so on. I wouldimagine that a dictionary of Heidegger should consist of far more pagesthan this volume which falls well short of 300.For example, Cygill's KantDictionary is replete with numerous entries and references to specifictexts. This edition of the dictionary series is in need of a dramaticoverhaul. Heidegger, who was so careful about his works, deserves a farbetter treatment than we have before us.This edition amounts to no betterthan a glossery of terms: terse and in many cases uninformative. ...
