Thinking And Be Ing In Heidegger S Beitr Ge Zur Philosophie Vom Ereignis

Heidegger's major be-ing-historical treatise, Beiträge zur Philosophie (Vom Ereignis), opens up the full depth and final range of his experience of thinking. It has a substantial bearing on the understanding, assessment, and appropriation of his lifework, not just on the interpretation of his later writings. The exploration of this unique work raises basic questions about the nature and task of thinking, not simply about Heidegger’s claims and insights. "Thinking and Be-ing in Heidegger's Beiträge zur Philosophie (Vom Ereignis)” by George Kovacs is a questioning confrontation with the main issues at stake in Heidegger’s thought. In contending with Heidegger's venture, George Kovacs clearly demonstrates that the re-thinking of the entire question of Being, of the ubiquitous and indispensable "is," is at the same time a re-thinking of the way of thinking, of thinking itself; it is a rediscovery of and an experience with language. This comprehensive, focused research contributes to the reawakening of the sense of wonder and curiosity about Being, beings, and human being's dwelling in the world, the primordial concern of Heidegger’s thought.

Five Groundbreaking Moments in Heidegger’s Thinking presents a fresh interpretation of some of Heidegger’s most difficult but important works, including his second major work, Beiträge zur Philosophie (Vom Ereignis) [Contributions to Philosophy (From Enowning)]. The careful approach shows how, for Heidegger, the acts of reading, thinking, and saying all move beyond the theoretical/conceptual and become an ongoing experience. In new translations of central texts, Kenneth Maly invites the reader to think along the way by reading, contemplating, and translating Heidegger’s ideas into this context. An introduction to the field of philosophy and more specifically to Heidegger’s thought, Five Groundbreaking Moments in Heidegger’s Thinking asks the reader, in some manner, to actively engage in thinking.

If one takes Heidegger at his word then his philosophy is about pursuing different "paths" of thought rather than defining a single set of truths. This volume gathers the work of an international group of scholars to present a range of ways in which Heidegger can be read and a diversity of styles in which his thought can be continued. Despite their many approaches to Heidegger, their hermeneutic orientation brings these scholars together. The essays span themes from the ontic to the ontological, from the specific to the speculative. While the volume does not aim to present a comprehensive interpretation of Heidegger's later thought, it covers much of the terrain of his later thinking and presents new directions for how Heidegger should and should not be read today. Scholars of Heidegger's later thought will find rich and original readings that expand considerations of Heidegger's entire oeuvre.

"Heidegger Studies" is an annual publication dedicated to promoting the understanding of Heidegger's thought through the interpretation of his writings. This annual review provides a forum for the thorough interpretation of the whole of Heidegger's work (including works published during his lifetime) that is called for by the ongoing publication of his "Gesamtausgabe". Indeed, "Heidegger Studies" is called for because of the breadth and significance of the new texts published in this edition. "Heidegger Studies" is international in character, and in keeping with this character it will publish papers in German, English and French. Die "Heidegger Studien" sind ein jährlich erscheinendes Periodikum, das der Förderung des Verständnisses des Heideggerschen Denkens durch die Interpretation seiner Schriften gewidmet ist. Das Jahrbuch bietet ein Forum für die gründliche Interpretation von Heideggers Werk im ganzen (einschließlich der zu seinen Lebzeiten veröffentlichten Werke), deren Notwendigkeit sich aus der fortlaufenden Veröffentlichung der "Gesamtausgabe" ergibt. In der Tat machen Spannbreite und Bedeutung der neuen Texte, die in dieser Ausgabe erscheinen, die "Heidegger Studien" erforderlich. Die "Heidegger Studien" sind ihrem Wesen nach international und werden, diesem Wesen entsprechend, Arbeiten in deutscher, englischer und französischer Sprache veröffentlichen. Les "Etudes Heideggeriennes" sont une publication annuelle, consacrée à promouvoir l'entente de la pensée de Heidegger grâce à l'interprétation de ses écrits. Ces annales s'offrent ainsi à être un lieu de débat en vue de la réinterprétation complète du travail de Heidegger dans son ensemble (y compris les textes publiés de son vivant) - ce qu'appelle d'ailleurs la publication en cours de l'"Edition Intégrale". Assurément, les "Etudes Heideggeriennes" répondent aussi à l'exigence suscitée par l'ampleur et l'importance des inédits que publie l'Edition Intégrale. Les "Etudes Heideggeriennes" sont une revue délibérément internationale. Ce caractère s'affirme avec la publication de textes en allemand, en anglais et en français.
