Elaborates the author's conception of plasticity by proposing a new
way of thinking through Heidegger's writings on change. Behind Martin
Heidegger's question of Being lies another one not yet sufficiently
addressed in continental philosophy: change. Catherine Malabou, one of
France's most inventive contemporary philosophers, explores this topic
in the writings of Heidegger through the themes of metamorphosis,
migration, exchange, and modification, finding and articulating a
radical theory of ontico-ontological transformability. The Heidegger
Change sketches the implications of this theory for a wide range of
issues of central concern to the humanities-capitalism, the gift,
ethics, suffering, the biological, technology, imagination, and time.
Not since the writings of Jacques Derrida and Emmanuel Levinas has the
work of Heidegger been the subject of such inventive interpretation
and original theory in its own right.
