  • PHL 550-301: Heidegger I, Being and Time Spring Quarter 2017
    PHL 550-301: Heidegger I, Being and Time Spring Quarter 2017 Thursdays 3:00-6:15pm, Philosophy Conference Room Instructor: Will McNeill Office Hours (150.3): Tuesdays, 9:00-11:00am or by appointment Outline: This course will present a condensed, thematic approach to the study of this central text of 20th century European philosophy. We will encounter the text through a sequence of inter-related yet distinct themes such as: the phenomenological method; the ontological difference; being-in-the-world and the problem of world; subjectivity and singularity; Care and the unity of Dasein; the destructuring of truth; the problem of foundations; being-toward-death and authenticity; ekstatic temporality; historicality and Destruktion. Students will be expected to read the entire text in advance, and we will use these themes as lenses through which to enhance our understanding of the central argument and its complexities. Required Texts: Everyone is expected to acquire the Macquarrie & Robinson translation of Being and Time (ISBN 978-0-06-157559-4), which is the edition we shall use in class. (A second translation, by Joan Stambaugh, also exists, but is less helpful overall.) If you can read German, or are learning German, you should acquire the Niemeyer edition of Sein und Zeit (ISBN 3-484-70122-6). I will be referring to this edition throughout to clarify the original German and associated translation issues. Additional readings will be made available on D2L. Course Assignments: 1. Full attendance is expected. It should go without saying that you must have done the assigned readings in advance, several times over, given a text of this difficulty.

    The Importance of Phronēsis in the Age of Modern Science: Gadamer’s Phronētic Critique of Scientific Reason Abstract: As Gadamer has acknowledged, we live in a time in which scientific rationality and methodology have been increasingly taken up into other disciplines, including the social and moral sciences which concern themselves with human understanding and practice. Our understanding of who we are and the world in which we are situated is evermore understood in terms of scientific explanation. Yet, as Gadamer argues, the domains of modern science and the human practical world share a problematic relation. This is because modern scientific description, with its emphasis upon method, repeatability, and verifiability already presupposes a split between the theoretical and practical domains. Accordingly, human practice is either reduced to theoretical methodologies or marginalised by scientific rationality. Here, I will argue, that Gadamer’s hermeneutic- phenomenological appropriation of Aristotelean phronēsis, as practical reason, can offer a way to rethink the idea of reason in the modern age, one that can account for the factical situatedness of human practice. So the present-day sense of the Kantian slogan of the enlightenment, “Sapere aude – have the courage to make use of your own understanding,” can be stated in a new way as the appeal to our social reason to awake from its technological dream. —Hans-Georg Gadamer, “Science as Instrument of Enlightenment,” 83. Introduction Across the last few decades a number of thinkers have addressed Martin Heidegger’s appropriation of the Aristotelian concept of phronēsis as a fundamental aspect of his thought, and to a lesser extent some thinkers have also acknowledged the same theme running through the philosophy of Hans-Georg Gadamer.

    1 COURSE SYLLABUS PHL 551: BEING AND TIME II Course/Section: PHL 551/201 Course Title: Being and Time II Time/Place: Tuesdays 1:00-4:00, Clifton 155 Instructor: Will McNeill Office: 2352 N. Clifton, Suite 150.3 Office Hours: Fridays, by appointment Email: [email protected] COURSE OUTLINE This is the second in a two-course sequence running through Fall and Winter quarters. The course is devoted to a close reading of Martin Heidegger’s central work, Being and Time. Published in 1927, this book at once radicalized the phenomenological method of philosophizing begun by Heidegger’s teacher, Edmund Husserl, and would establish Heidegger as undoubtedly the most important philosopher of the twentieth century. As we read this difficult text, we shall not only attempt to wrestle with its strange language and terminology in order to understand what Heidegger was trying to say; we shall also attempt to set his thought in the context of the philosophical tradition in order to illuminate its radicality with respect to what preceded it. The Fall quarter will be devoted to a study of Division One of Being and Time, the Winter quarter to a reading of Division Two. TEXTS The primary text will be Martin Heidegger, Being and Time, translated by John Macquarrie and Edward Robinson. Translation first published in 1962. This is the translation we shall be using in class, so all students are expected to have a copy. An alternative, more recent translation, is that of Joan Stambaugh, published by State University of New York Press in 1996 and revised in 2010.

  • Heidegger's Hidden Sources: East Asian Influences on His Work
    Heidegger’s hidden sources East Asian influences on his work Reinhard May Translated, with a complementary essay, by Graham Parkes London and New York Rising sun over Black Forest Heidegger’s Japanese connections Graham Parkes1 Reinhard May has argued on the basis of close textual comparisons that Heidegger’s formulations of his major thoughts on Being, Nothing, the clearing, and on the complex relations between language, Way, and Saying, were influenced by his readings of German translations of Daoist and Zen texts and his collaboration with Paul Shih-yi Hsiao on translating selected chapters from the Laozi. Since Heidegger was so reticent about his acquaintance with East Asian ideas, it is hard to determine when he first started reading in that area. While it is likely, given the intellectual milieu in which he grew up, that this acquaintance came early, the first confirmed instance so far is Petzet’s report of Heidegger’s consulting the Buber edition of the Zhuangzi in 1930, an event that indicates a prior familiarity with that text.2 This revelation should not perhaps have come as a major surprise in view of Heidegger’s general reticence with respect to the sources of his ideas.3 Some good treatments of the early phases of his intellectual biography work have appeared recently in the secondary literature in English, though the scholarship continues to ignore extra-European sources or influences.4 A significant feature, it seems to me, in Heidegger’s philosophical development, which is mentioned but not elaborated by Reinhard May, is the contact he enjoyed during the 1920s with several of the best minds in modern Japanese philosophy.

  • Reading Aristotle's Critique of Parmenides (Physics 1.3)
    This is the accepted manuscript version of the following article: Jussi Backman, “Being Itself and the Being of Beings: Reading Aristotle’s Critique of Parmenides (Physics 1.3) after Metaphysics,” Epoché: A Journal for the History of Philosophy 22:2 (2018): 271–91, available in final form at https://doi.org/10.5840/epoche20171220103. Being Itself and the Being of Beings: Reading Aristotle’s Critique of Parmenides (Physics 1.3) after Metaphysics1 JUSSI BACKMAN University of Jyväskylä Abstract The essay studies Aristotle’s critique of Parmenides (Physics 1.3) in the light of the Heideggerian account of Platonic-Aristotelian metaphysics as an approach to being (Sein) in terms of beings (das Seiende). Aristotle’s critique focuses on the presuppositions of the Parmenidean thesis of the unity of being. It is argued that a close study of the presuppositions of Aristotle’s own critique reveals an important difference between the Aristotelian metaphysical framework and the Parmenidean “protometaphysical” approach. The Parmenides fragments indicate being as such in the sense of the pure, undifferentiated “is there” (τὸ ἐόν)—as the intelligible accessibility of meaningful reality to thinking, prior to its articulation into determinate beings. For Aristotle, by contrast, “being itself” (αὐτὸ τὸ ὄν) has no other plausible meaning than “being-something-determinate as such” (τὸ ὅπερ ὄν τι), which itself remains equivocal. In this sense, Aristotle can indeed be said to conceive being in terms of beings, as the being-ness of determinate beings. 1 1. PRESOCRATIC PROTOMETAPHYSICS The term “Presocratic” is in itself evidence of our ingrained tendency to read the earliest Greek philosophers in the light of Socrates-Plato.

  • Heidegger's Conception of Authentic Life In
    Choosing a Hero: Heidegger’s Conception of Authentic Life in Relation to Early Christianity By Dermot Moran, University College Dublin In Andrzej Wiercinski and Sean McGrath, eds., A Companion to Heidegger’s Phenomenology of Religious Life. Elementa. Schriften zur Philosophie und ihrer Problemgeschichte, vol. 80 (Amsterdam & New York: Rodopi, 2010), pp. 349-75. The Ur-phenomenon of Life On the 21st of January, 1919 Martin Heidegger officially became a paid assistant to Edmund Husserl, who had held the Chair in Freiburg since 1916.1 On January 25th, the “War Emergency Semester” (Kriegnotsemester) commenced and Heidegger embarked on his first lecture course, ‘The Idea of Philosophy and the Problem of Worldview’, in which he explored his own understanding of the true method of philosophy and its relation to phenomenology (GA56/57). In subsequent Freiburg lecture courses from 1919 to 1923, Heidegger made strenuous attempts to come to terms with, and gain a critical perspective on the current philosophical scene: neo-Kantian philosophy (specifically Rickert, Natorp, Windelband, and Lask), phenomenology (Husserl, Scheler), hermeneutics and life-philosophy (Dilthey, Simmel). It is noteworthy that no matter what was the announced course title, Heidegger always used the occasion to think deeply about the nature of philosophy and more specifically to interrogate the meaning and value of phenomenology as a mode of approach to the issues (and, in passing, treated issues such as the nature of philosophy as a science, the meaning of ‘worldview’, the ‘externalities’ of current study of philosophy in the university, and so on). Heidegger was frustrated by the fact that academic philosophy was not doing justice to concrete, individual life in the world, to individual life as it is spread out in history.

Even today, the German term Wissenschaft embraces not only the natural and the social sciences, including economics, l but also the full panoply of the so-called humanities, including the theoretical study of art and theology, both important in the nineteenth century for, among other things, the formation of the life sciences.2 Philosophy itself was also counted as a science and was, in its phenomenological articulation, nothing less than the science ofscientific origins or "original science" the «Urwissenschaft" - as Martin Heidegger defined it in 1919,3 following his own intensive engagement with Edmund Hussed's Logical Investigations.

In order to adequately discuss Heidegger‘s notion of time we first require a historical mediation, i.e., to go back to and interpret the time phenomenon by engaging in a hermeneutical analysis. Therefore, the method that Heidegger adopts (the hermeneutical situation) is the method that I adopt throughout. It is important to note that I will be conducting my own phenomenology, i.e., I will be phenomenologizing in an attempt to better understand the time phenomenon in relation to factical life experience.

    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Myth and Truth in Heidegger’s Lecture Course on Parmenides A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Philosophy Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By John Teepen Schlachter Washington, D.C. 2016 Myth and Truth in Heidegger’s Lecture Course on Parmenides John Teepen Schlachter, Ph.D. Director: Holger Zaborowski, D.Phil. Immediately after his publication of Sein und Zeit (1927), Heidegger began to reframe his approach to the question of being. By his own admission, a principal problem with Sein und Zeit is that it describes the disclosure of Dasein but fails to describe how being discloses itself to Dasein. A recurring observation in Heidegger’s later thought is that, since Plato’s introduction of the forms and Aristotle’s structuring of logic, philosophy has obscured the fundamental question of being (Grundfrage), substituting instead what he calls “the guiding question [Leitfrage],” namely, the inquiry into the “being of beings.” In order to free himself from this alleged obscurity, Heidegger begins an investigation of the Presocratics, and a pivotal moment in this investigation is his lecture course of 1942-43, Parmenides, on the mythical proem of Parmenides’s poem. Many scholars have explored Heidegger’s writings on truth in article-length works; a few, including Bambach and Caputo, have published longer works placing Parmenides in a developmental context, but even these do not make the lecture course their primary focus, and their assessments do not always take Heidegger’s ideas seriously on their own terms.
