The Heidegger Reader

The Heidegger Readerbrings key texts from the entire course of Heidegger_s philosophical career into one volume. Many of the selections, translated here for The first time, offer new insight into Heidegger_s thought for both the beginning student and The experienced scholar. A critical and interpretive introduction by Guuml;nter Figal traces the many thematic paths that are necessary for developing a comprehensive understanding of Heidegger_s most important work. The carefully chosen readings are designed to reflect the concerns that are most relevant to philosophy today. Special features include an authoritative chronology of Heidegger_s life, a current list of the Complete Works, and a definitive translation of Heidegger_s controversial interview withDer Spiegel.

G++nter Figal is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Freiburg in Breisgau, Germany. He is the author of several books on Gadamer, Heidegger, hermeneutics, and social and political philosophy.

Jerome Veith is completing his doctorate in philosophy at Boston College.
