Course Catalog Description
In this course, we will trace the development of Heidegger’s philosophical work from his early attempt to work out a “fundamental ontology” to his late projects of formulating a “history of Being” and of elaborating a new, “poetic” way of thinking. Based on close readings of selected texts including *Being and Time*, *The Origin of the Work of Art*, and “The Question Concerning Technology,” we will analyze key concepts such as “Being” and “beings,” “temporality” and “historicity,” or “enowning” and“enframing.” Led by these texts, we will explore how Heidegger seeks to reconceive subjectivity,intersubjectivity, cognition, and language by dissociating his own approach from the philosophical tradition.
