" . . an important addition to the translations of Heidegger's
lecture-courses . . Heidegger's voice can be heard with few of the
jolting Germanicisms with which so many translations of Heidegger's
texts have been burdened. . . ." —International Philosophical
Quarterly
"The translators of these lectures have succeeded splendidly in giving
readers an intimation of the tensely insistent tone of the original
German. Heidegger's concern with a linguistic preconsciousness and
with our entrancement before the enigma of existence remains intensely
contemporary." —Choice
"There is much that is new and valuable in this book, and McNeill and
Walker's faithful translation makes it very accessible." —Review of
Metaphysics
"Whoever thought that Heidegger . . . has no surprises left in him had
better read this volume. If its rhetoric is 'hard and heavy' its
thought is even harder and essentially more daring than Heideggerians
ever imagined Heidegger could be." —David Farrell Krell
First published in German in 1938 as volume 29/30 of Heidegger's
collected works, The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics includes an
extended treatment of the history of metaphysics and an elaboration of
a philosophy of life and nature. Heidegger's concepts of organism,
animal behavior, and environment are uniquely developed and defined
with intensity.
This work, the text of Martin Heidegger's lecture course of 1929/30,
is crucial for an understanding of Heidegger's transition from the
major work of his early years, Being and Time, to his later
preoccupations with language, truth, and history. First published in
German in 1983 as volume 29/30 of Heidegger's collected works, The
Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics includes an extended treatment of
the history of metaphysics and an elaboration of a philosophy of life
and nature. Heidegger's concepts of organism, animal behavior, and
environment are uniquely developed and defined with intensity.
