xx, 389 pages ; 24 cm Martin Heidegger is now widely recognized alongside Wittgenstein as one of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century. He transformed mainstream philosophy by defining its central task as asking the "question of being", and he has had a profund impact on such fields as literary theory, theology, psychoterapy, political theory, aesthetics, and environmental studies. His thought has contributed to the recent turn to hermeneutics in philosophy and the social sciences and to current postmodern and poststructuralist developments. Moreover the disclosure of his deep in the ideology of Nazism has provoked much debate about the relation of philosophy to politics. This volume contains both overviews of Heidegger's life and works and analyses of his most important work, Being and Time. In addition there are discussions of Heidegger's thought in relation to politics, theology, cology, psychoterapy, Easternthought, and the philosophy of language. The volume also contains an in-depth study of what has been called Heidegger's second greatest work, the Beiträ zur Philosophie.
