In this book, Federico Dal Bo analyzes the question of Heidegger’s anti-Semitism from a deconstructive point of view, appealing not only to philosophy but also to psychoanalysis, gender studies, and critical studies. Deconstruction famously discourages simplistic oppositions whilst encouraging a more careful analysis of cultural and philosophical complexities of a semantic field. In the present case, a deconstructive analysis of Heidegger’s anti-Semitism rejects both a stern condemnation of his oeuvre and a simplistic acquittal from this infamous accusation. It rather suggests that the question of his anti-Semitism shall be examined from the broader perspective—from the end of metaphysics.
This volume contains new and original papers on Martin Heidegger’s complex relation to Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy. The authors not only critically discuss the many aspects of Heidegger’s reading of Nietzsche, they also interpret Heidegger’s thought from a Nietzschean perspective. Here is presented for the first time an overview of not only Heidegger’s and Nietzsche’s philosophy but also an overview of what is alive – and dead – in their thinking. Many authors through a reading of Heidegger and Nietzsche deal with current issues such as technology, ecology, and politics. This volume is of interest for everyone interested in Heidegger’s and Nietzsche’s thought.

In recent decades, widespread rejection of positivism’s notorious hostility toward the philosophical tradition has led to renewed debate about the real relationship of philosophy to its history. How History Matters to Philosophy takes a fresh look at this debate. Current discussion usually starts with the question of whether philosophy’s past should matter, but Scharff argues that the very existence of the debate itself demonstrates that it already does matter. After an introductory review of the recent literature, he develops his case in two parts. In Part One, he shows how history actually matters for even Plato’s Socrates, Descartes, and Comte, in spite of their apparent promotion o...
Se un escoita a testemuña de moitos dos estudosos que tiveron algún contacto con Heidegger, que presenciaron as súas leccións universitarias ou asistiron ás súas conferencias ou seminarios, é fácil quedarse coa impresión de que estiveron en presenza dun auténtico oráculo filosófico. Mais, o brillante futuro que parecía abrírselle a esta filosofía, rapidamente se escureceu ao caer sobre ela a sombra do nazismo. Pero é sobre todo despois da publicación dos Cadernos negros que, como sinala o seu editor Peter Trawny, o nome de Heidegger vai inevitablemente unido a un caso de disputa para todo o que queira adentrarse no seu pensamento. Parece, entón, que unha visión integral da...
Contrariamente a lo que la mayoría de la humanidad supone, los verdaderos dirigentes de la tierra no son los gobiernos. Quienes actualmente gobiernan el mundo –y se enriquecen desmesuradamente en el proceso— son las grandes corporaciones trasnacionales. Tales corporaciones fueron, al principio, establecidas para realizar emprendimientos que implicaban un elevado riesgo y podrían ocasionar que sus dueños fuesen llevados a prisión por las externalidades que sus empresas producían. Con el objeto de evadir tal responsabilidad, se crearon entelequias –las corporaciones— que podían contratar personal, adquirir bienes e incluso quebrar pero que nunca podrían ir a la cárcel. Una corp...

This volume brings together essays written by renowned authors from around the world addressing the wide range of A. G. Vigo's philosophical interests: ancient philosophy and its reception, transcendental philosophy, and practical philosophy. In texts that engage with the honoree's work, the contributors-hailing from Germany, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Spain, the United States, and Mexico-highlight the significant influence of his scholarship on the study of practical philosophy, as well as the interpretation of Plato, Aristotle, Kant, Husserl, and Heidegger. The diversity of languages and themes collected does justice to the breadth of professor Vigo's impact.
Seit der Veroffentlichung von Heideggers Schwarzen Heften ist sein Denken einer massiven Kritik unterzogen worden. Zwei Themen standen von Anfang an im Mittelpunkt: die Frage nach seinem Verhaltnis zum Nationalsozialismus und die Frage nach seinem Antisemitismus. Dass Heidegger sich in den Schwarzen Heften zum Grossteil mit anderen Themen befasste, geriet so aus dem Blick. In den Schwarzen Heften finden wir eine massive Kritik des Christentums, wichtige Erlauterungen zum Ereignis-Denken, die Konturen der Seinsgeschichte und immer wieder Selbstinterpretationen und Selbstkritik. Die Schwarzen Heften belegen auch eine Krise im Denken Heideggers und mehrere vergebliche Versuche, eine neue Sprach...
