Book excerpt: "I shall speak of ghost, of flame, and of ashes." These are the first words of Jacques Derrida's lecture on Heidegger. It is again a question of Nazism—of what remains to be thought through of Nazism in general and of Heidegger's Nazism in particular. It is also "politics of spirit" which at the time people thought—they still want to today—to oppose to the inhuman. "Derrida's ruminations should intrigue anyone interested in Post-Structuralism. . . . . This study of Heidegger is a fine example of how Derrida can make readers of philosophical texts notice difficult problems in almost imperceptible details of those texts."—David Hoy, London Review of Books "Will a more important book on Heidegger appear in our time? No, not unless Derrida continues to think and write in his spirit. . . . Let there be no mistake: this is not merely a brilliant book on Heidegger, it is thinking in the grand style."—David Farrell Krell, Research in Phenomenology "The analysis of Heidegger is brilliant, provocative, elusive."—Peter C. Hodgson, Religious Studies Review
Download or read book Heidegger written by Jacques Derrida and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is the fourth volume of the twenty projected volumes of our Seminars of Jacques Derrida Series edited by Geoffrey Bennington and Peggy Kamuf. The work derives from an early phase of Derrida's teaching at the Ecole Normale Superieur at Ulm from 1964-5. In this course Derrida presents an almost surgically precise reading of Heidegger's Being and Time based on the original German text most of which had not yet been translated into French. The course thus marks the very beginning of the study of Heidegger's work in French higher education. It also heralds the analyses of Heidegger's work that Derrida would go on to propose, not only in the years immediately following, but also others that come much later. He frequently returned in subsequent published works to one particular paragraph of Sein und Zeit, (§72 on "thrownness"), so central to this 1964-5 course, and to another sustained exchange with Heidegger, whose central theme of inauthenticity is clearly broached here. One can also observe here how Derrida's thinking is settling into place and is elaborating its major operative concepts: "writing," "text," and "graft." On the other hand, the very term "deconstruction," explicitly proposed as a translation of Destruktion, is several times put aside here in favor of other translations such as "solicitation" and "shaking up," which will, with a few exceptions, not be retained in Derrida's thinking. It is only much later that Derrida will lay claim to the word "deconstruction" and develop it in numerous ways. The work is thus essential for scholars of Heidegger, French philosophy, and Derrida himself.
Book Synopsis Phantoms of the Other by : David Farrell Krell
Download or read book Phantoms of the Other written by David Farrell Krell and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2015-02-10 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Features a reconstruction of an unfinished text by Jacques Derrida from his most penetrating series of readings of Heideggers philosophy. During the 1980s Jacques Derrida wrote and published three incisive essays under the title Geschlecht,aGerman word for generation and sexuality. These essays focused on the philosophy of Martin Heidegger, taking up the rarely discussed issue of sexual difference in Heideggers thought. A fourth essayactually the third in the serieswas never completed and never published. In Phantoms of the Other, David Farrell Krell reconstructs this third Geschlecht on the basis of archival materials and puts it in the context of the entire series. Touching on the themes of sexual difference, poetics, politics, and criticism as practiced by Heidegger, Derridas unfinished third essay offers a penetrating critical analysis of Heideggers views on sexuality and Heideggers reading of the love poems of Georg Trakl, one of the greatest Expressionist poets of the German language, who died during the opening days of the First World War. A major contribution to Derrida studies, to Heidegger studies, and to philosophy. Walter Brogan This study of Derridas several engagements with Heidegger under the title of Geschlecht shows Krells remarkable scholarship, linguistic ability, philosophical insight, and subtlety at their very best.

Book Synopsis Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit by : Martin Heidegger
Download or read book Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit written by Martin Heidegger and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1988-08-22 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The text of Martin Heidegger's 1930-1931 lecture course on Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit contains some of Heidegger's most crucial statements about temporality, ontological difference and dialectic, and being and time in Hegel. Within the context of Heidegger's project of reinterpreting Western thought through its central figures, Heidegger takes up a fundamental concern of Being and Time, "a dismantling of the history of ontology with the problematic of temporality as a clue." He shows that temporality is centrally involved in the movement of thinking called phenomenology of spirit.
Book Synopsis Margins of Philosophy by : Jacques Derrida
Download or read book Margins of Philosophy written by Jacques Derrida and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this densely imbricated volume Derrida pursues his devoted, relentless dismantling of the philosophical tradition, the tradition of Plato, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Husserl, Heidegger—each dealt with in one or more of the essays. There are essays too on linguistics (Saussure, Benveniste, Austin) and on the nature of metaphor ("White Mythology"), the latter with important implications for literary theory. Derrida is fully in control of a dazzling stylistic register in this book—a source of true illumination for those prepared to follow his arduous path. Bass is a superb translator and annotator. His notes on the multilingual allusions and puns are a great service."—Alexander Gelley, Library Journal
Book Synopsis Specters of Marx by : Jacques Derrida
Download or read book Specters of Marx written by Jacques Derrida and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prodigiously influential, Jacques Derrida gave rise to a comprehensive rethinking of the basic concepts and categories of Western philosophy in the latter part of the twentieth century, with writings central to our understanding of language, meaning, identity, ethics and values. In 1993, a conference was organized around the question, 'Whither Marxism?’, and Derrida was invited to open the proceedings. His plenary address, 'Specters of Marx', delivered in two parts, forms the basis of this book. Hotly debated when it was first published, a rapidly changing world and world politics have scarcely dented the relevance of this book.
Book Synopsis Being and Time by : Martin Heidegger
Download or read book Being and Time written by Martin Heidegger and published by Newcomb Livraria Press. This book was released on 1962 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new 2024 translation of Martin Heidegger's major work "Being and Time" (Sein und Zeit), originally published in 1927 in multiple publications. This edition contains a new afterword by the Translator, a timeline of Heidegger's life and works, a philosophic index of core Heideggerian concepts and a guide for terminology across 19th and 20th century Existentialists. This translation is designed for readability and accessibility to Heidegger's enigmatic and dense philosophy. Complex and specific philosophic terms are translated as literally as possible and academic footnotes have been removed to ensure easy reading. Being and Time presents a complex philosophical discourse on the nature of being (Sein) and time (Zeit), focusing in particular on the temporal-existentialist concept of Dasein, a term that combines the German words for "to be" (sein) and "there" (da). This classic philosophic work examines the traditional metaphysical understanding of being, arguing that this understanding, typically based on the idea of a constant presence, fails to account for the temporal and existential dimensions of being. Heidegger proposes that an understanding of being requires an analysis of Dasein, which is characterized not only by its existence, but also by its being in the world and its temporal existence. The concept of Dasein is central to the his argument, emphasizing that Dasein is always already situated in a world, and its understanding of being is shaped by its temporal existence. This perspective challenges traditional metaphysical notions of being as static and unchanging, proposing instead that being is fundamentally temporal and connected to human existence and understanding. As the title suggests, Heidegger sees the question of Being as indistinguishable from Time, arguing that Newtonian conceptions of time as a series of now-points are inadequate for understanding the being of Dasein. His Ontochronology argues that the existential and ontological analysis of Dasein reveals a more fundamental concept of time, one that is integral to the structure of Being itself. The text further elaborates on the idea of "thrownness" and several other existentialist themes. Thrownness is one of the three conditions that signifies Dasein's immersion in the world, where it finds itself already entangled in a web of relations and meanings. This "thrownness", combined with Dasein's inherent being-toward-death, underscores the existential condition of human beings, framing their existence as a continual engagement with their own finitude and the possibilities of their being. Heidegger posits that understanding the nature of being requires a fundamental rethinking of both being and time, dogmatically stating that the true nature of being can only be grasped through an understanding of the temporality that characterizes the existence of being.
Book Synopsis Daimon Life by : David Farrell Krell
Download or read book Daimon Life written by David Farrell Krell and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1992-12-22 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Daimon Life is life-enchancing. To read it is to become richer in wor(l)d." –John Llewelyn Disclosure of Martin Heidegger's complicity with the National Socialist regime in 1933-34 has provoked virulent debate about the relationship between his politics and his philosophy. Did Heidegger's philosophy exhibit a kind of organicism readily transformed into ideological "blood and soil"? Or, rather, did his support of the Nazis betray a fundamental lack of loyalty to living things? David Farrell Krell traces Heidegger's political authoritarianism to his failure to develop a constructive "life-philosophy"—his phobic reactions to other forms of being. Krell details Heidegger's opposition to Lebensphilosophie as expressed in Being and Time, in an important but little-known lecture course on theoretical biology given in 1929–30 called "The Basic Concepts of Metaphysics," and in a recently published key text, Contributions to Philosophy, written in 1936–38. Although Heidegger's attempt to think through the problems of life, sexual reproduction, behavior, environment, and the ecosystem ultimately failed, Krell contends that his methods of thinking nonetheless pose important tasks for our own thought. Drawing on and away from Heidegger, Krell expands on the topics of life, death, sexuality, and spirit as these are treated by Freud, Nietzsche, Derrida, and Irigaray. Daimon Life addresses issues central to contemporary philosophies of politics, gender, ecology, and theoretical biology.
Book Synopsis Derrida and Différance by : David Wood
Download or read book Derrida and Différance written by David Wood and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Society of the Friends of Difference would have to include Heraclitus, Nietzsche, Saussure, Freud, Adorno, Heidegger, Levinas, Deleuze, and Lyotard among its most prominent members. It is tempting to think of these figures as constituting a distinct philosophical tradition, one which would emphasize dissonance, separation, disparity, plurality, distinction, change, over against those who would continue the search for unity, identity, presence, permanence, foundations, structures, and essences.

Book Synopsis The Ghosts of Justice by : Ashok Kara
Download or read book The Ghosts of Justice written by Ashok Kara and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not possible to read Heidegger's text without the image of his arm raised in the Nazi salute haunting it. The image compels us to examine Heidegger's philosophy in terms of its susceptibility to Nazi ideology. Heidegger's philosophy was inscribed at the end of the history of philosophy, a time when Nazism was on the rise and on its way to the renewal of German destiny. In paragraph six of Being and Time Heidegger outlined his agenda for the renewal of philosophy. The renewal necessitated the destruction of the errant history of ontology in order to retrieve the pure primordial experiences. The parallels between the forms of two agendas are coincidental. However, my work shows where they overlapped. I explore the consequence of this overlap by soliciting the 'first' text of philosophy, The Anaximander Fragment, that speaks about justice and injustice. Justice is also at issue in the text of Jacques Derrida. Derrida's primary resource is paragraph six of Heidegger's Being and Time, a fact that caused some of his readers to assimilate him to Heidegger. Derrida has tried to distance himself from Heidegger and in a late text he has offered us the prescriptive phrase, "Deconstruction is justice," to guide our reading of his text. The phrase invites us to examine Derrida's work in light of its saying. This is what I try to do. I show that a separation cannot be accomplished without a price, because whether an author intends it or not, justice is something ghostly and it keeps its own account. Heidegger's arm and Derrida's hand caught in the trap of paragraph six tell another story, different from the stories the authors tell. The limbs tell the story about the ghosts of justice.

Book Synopsis Heidegger and Derrida by : Herman Rapaport
Download or read book Heidegger and Derrida written by Herman Rapaport and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1989-01-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the spell of Jacques Derrida grows stronger, with more translations and analyses appearing every season, it is possible--and necessary--to determine what in his work is truly new and what continues philosophical and literary traditions. Although Martin Heidegger ahs been mentioned before as a precursor of deconstruction, Herman Rapaport is the first to develop the connections between the writings of the German philosopher and Derrida. Heidegger and Derrida discusses the French philosopher's adoption of certain Heideggerean themes and his extension or overturning of them. But Rapaport does more than show how deconstruction builds on the philosophical foundations laid by Heidegger (and also by Hegel, Nietzsche, and Freud). In the most comprehensive study of Derrida's works to date, he tackles the problem of writing an intellectual history about a figure who has put into question the possibility of such a construction and acknowledges Derrida's concerns with Jewish history in relation to Western thought.
Book Synopsis Hegel After Derrida by : Stuart Barnett
Download or read book Hegel After Derrida written by Stuart Barnett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-01-04 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hegel After Derrida provides a much needed insight not only into the importance of Hegel and the importance of Derrida's work on Hegel, but also the very foundations of postmodern and deconstructionist thought. It will be essential reading for all those engaging with the work of Derrida and Hegel today and anyone seeking insight into some of the basic but neglected themes of deconstruction.
