He easily played. He was easily wholly with “you.” | |||
August 2015 | paths and heights | ||
Heidegger’s path in Messkirch is allegorical of his career, perhaps. |
May 2014 | about beginning again (in reverence) | ||
This links to a short video of Heidegger near the end of his life, with my discussion and link to a PDF of the English translation of his lecture “The End of Philosophy and the Task of Thinking,” which I’ll discuss someday. | |||
March 2017 | on “the experience of thinking” | ||
He’s rigorous with his choice of conceptual commentary on his forgettable little poem (imagistic verse). He intimated near the end of his life, 1973, that something singular about his thinking is here (1947). I think there’s much to gain by dwelling with his conceptual commentary. |

September 2013 | Heidegger’s early philosophy | ||
This links to a review of a book about Being and Time by wonderful Ted Kisiel—with introductory commentary from me. This is less about Being and Time than about the sensibility of a great scholar of Heidegger. |
March 2017 | readings by Heidegger in English | ||
Now that so much of his supplementary work is coming into translation, it’s easy to not know that the work which he considered most important was available in English before he died. The readings here don’t include Being and Time because he intended, late in life, that B&T should be read in light of his later introductory work, but should be appreciated as an experimental work—an innovating of leading literature and terminology of 1920s German academia. Being and Time was an event of appropriation. | |||
