Hermeneutical Heidegger

Hermeneutical Heidegger critically examines and confronts Heideggers hermeneutical approach to philosophy and the history of philosophy. Heideggers work, both early and late, has had a profound impact on hermeneutics and hermeneutical philosophy. The essays in this volume are striking in the way they exhibit the variety of perspectives on the development and role of hermeneutics in Heideggers work, allowing a multiplicity of views on the nature of hermeneutics and hermeneutical philosophyto emerge. As Heidegger argues, the rigor and strength of philosophy do not consist in the development of a univocal and universal method, but in philosophys ability to embracenot just toleratethe questioning of its basic concepts. The essays in Hermeneutical Heidegger are exemplars of this kind of rigor and strength. See more
