A “readable and fluent” translation of a work that demonstrates a
crucial shift in Heidegger’s approach to Nietzsche in the late 1930s
(Phenomenological Reviews). In Nietzsche’s Second Untimely
Meditation, Martin Heidegger offers a radically different reading of a
text that he had read decades earlier. This evolution in his
relationship with Nietzsche has a significant impact on his
understandings of the differences between animals and humans,
temporality and history, and the Western philosophical tradition
developed. With his new reading, Heidegger delineates three
Nietzschean modes of history, which should be understood as grounded
in the structure of temporality or historicity. He also offers a
metaphysical determination of life and the essence of humankind.
Despite the fragmentary and disjointed quality of the original lecture
notes that comprise this text, Ullrich Hasse and Mark Sinclair deliver
a clear and accessible translation.
