<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Now in paperback, this important book explores the central role of historical thought in the full range of Heidegger's thought, both the early writings leading up to Being and Time, and after the "reversal" or Kehre that inaugurated his later work. <p/>Barash examines Heidegger's views on history in a richly developed context of debates that transpired in the early 20th-century German philosophy of history. <p/>He addresses a key unifying theme--the problem of historical meaning and the search for coherent criteria of truth in an era of historical relativism--as he traces the engagement with historicity throughout all major epochs and works. <p/>Barash revises this edition to explore new material, including Heidegger's lecture course texts from 1910 to 1923, and adds an expanded, updated bibliography.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A fine account of Heidegger's intellectual development. . . . insightful and well-structured."-- "--The Journal of Modern History"<br><br>Centering on historical thought in Heidegger's philosophy, Barash addresses the problems of truth criteria and relativism.-- "--University of Chicago Magazine"<br><br>Makes an important contribution to Heidegger studies on two counts.
