Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Martin Heidegger is one of the most influential figures of twentieth-century philosophy but his reputation was tainted by his associations with Nazism. The posthumous publication of the Black Notebooks, which reveal the shocking extent of Heideggers anti-Semitism, has only cast further doubt on his work. Now more than ever, a new introduction to Heidegger is needed to reassess his work and legacy. This book by the world-leading Heidegger scholar Peter Trawny is the first introduction to take into account the new material made available by the explosive publication of the Black Notebooks. Seeking neither to condemn nor excuse Heideggers views, Trawny directly confronts and elucidates the most problematic aspects of his thought. At the same time, he provides a comprehensive survey of Heideggers development, from his early writings on phenomenology and his magnum opus, Being and Time, to his later writings on poetry and technology. Trawny captures the extraordinary significance and breadth of fifty years of philosophical production, all against the backdrop of the tumultuous events of the twentieth century. This concise introduction will be required reading for the many students and scholars in philosophy and critical theory who study Heidegger, and it will be of great interest to general readers who want to know more about one of the major figures of contemporary philosophy. English translation of: Martin Heidegger: eine kritische Einfeuhrung. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. Martin Heidegger is widely regarded as one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth-century, and his seminal text Being and Time is considered one of the most significant texts in contemporary philosophy. Yet his name has also been mired in controversy because of his affiliations with the Nazi regime, his failure to criticize its genocidal politics and his subsequent silence about the holocaust.Now, according to Heidegger's wishes, and to complete the publication of his multi-volume Complete Works, his highly controversial and secret 'Black Notebooks' have been released to the public. These notebooks reveal the extent to which Heidegger's 'personal Nazism' was neither incidental nor opportunistic, but part of his philosophical ethos. So, why would Heidegger, far from destroying them, allow these notebooks, which contain examples of this extreme thinking, to be published? In this revealing new book, Peter Trawny, editor of Heidegger's complete works in German, confronts these questions and, by way of a compelling study of his theoretical work, shows that Heidegger was committed to a conception of freedom that is only beholden to the judgement of the history of being; that is, that to be free means to be free from the prejudices, norms, or mores of one's time. Whoever thinks the truth of being freely exposes themselves to the danger of epochal errancy. For this reason, Heidegger's decision to publish his notebooks, including their anti-Jewish passages, was an exercise of this anarchical freedom. In the course of a wide-ranging discussion of Heidegger's views on truth, ethics, the truth of being, tragedy and his relationship to other figures such as Nietzsche and Schmitt, Trawny provides a compelling argument for why Heidegger wanted the explosive material in his Black Notebooks to be published, whilst also offering an original and provocative interpretation of Heidegger's work.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Von 1817 bis 1820 bereist der aus Bayern stammende Botaniker Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius im Auftrag des osterreichischen Kaisers Franz I. Brasilien, die grosste europaische Kolonie jener Zeit, um eine grosse Sammlung ethnologisch bedeutender Gegenstande nach Munchen zu bringen. 1832 verfasst er den Band Von dem Rechtszustande unter den Ureinwohner Brasiliens, dem der heutige Leser entnehmen kann, in welche Welt die Forscher damals eindrangen, zugleich aber auch, welche Welt sie mitbrachten: das Wissenschaftsverstandnis des fruhen 19. Jahrhunderts vor Darwin, gepragt von den naturwissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen Humboldts und der innovativen Systematik Linnes, der den Menschen als "Mensch im System der Natur" und nicht mehr als Geschopf Gottes auffasste. Diese neue Sicht kommt einem Quantensprung in der Wissenschaft vom Menschen gleich, und so lasst sich der Reisebericht des Schellingschulers Martius als eine Anthropologie avant la lettre lesen, die Claude Levi-Strauss' beruhmtem Buch "Traurige Tropen" um gut hundert Jahre vorangeht. From 1817 to 1820, on behalf of the Austrian Emperor Franz I, the Bavarian botanist Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius traveled in Brazil, then the largest European colony, in order to bring a large collection of ethnologically important objects to Munich. In 1832, back in Europe, he wrote "Von dem Rechtszustande unter den Ureinwohner Brasiliens" ("On the state of law among the native peoples of Brazil"). The slender volume affords today's readers with a look through the very eyes of the explorers at the world they were entering, but also at the world they were bringing with them: the early 19th centuries's conception of science before Darwin, shaped by Humboldt's scientific findings and the innovative systematics of Linne, who saw man as being a part of the system of nature and no longer as a creature of God. This new view is tantamount to a quantum leap in the science of man, and thus the travelogue of Schelling's student Martius can be read as an anthropology avant la lettre, precedings Claude Levi-Strauss's famous book "Sad Tropics" by a good hundred years.
