The Genesis of Heidegger's Reading of Kant The Genesis of Heidegger’s Reading of Kant By Garrett Zantow Bredeson Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Philosophy December, 2014 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Jeffrey Tlumak, Ph.D. Lisa Guenther, Ph.D. Julian Wuerth, Ph.D. Sebastian Luft, Ph.D. for Florence Goodearle Zantow 1921 – 2012 ii Acknowledgements This project was originally conceived in the depths of winter 2008 in Oconto, WI. My interest in Kant had been sparked the year before by Julius Sensat and others at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. My interest in Heidegger is of longer standing, and I thank John Dreher of Lawrence University for having had the patience to put up with me while I insisted on reading the entirety of Being and Time over the course of a tutorial that was not really designed with anything like that in mind. I would like to thank my committee members for the time they have invested in my project, especially my dissertation director, Jeffrey Tlumak, whose understanding and support for me have been extraordinary over the years. I also feel as though I’ve been unusually blessed by having the chance to be a small part of outstanding and supportive communities of graduate students, first at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and then at Vanderbilt University. I’ve learned far more from them than can be put into words. Although this list cannot possibly be exhaustive, let me especially thank for their many conversations over the years R.J. Leland, Nataliya Palatnik, Adam Marushak, Justin Remhof, Nate Sharadin, Stephanie Allen, John Timmers, Patrick Fessenbecker, Rebecca Tuvel, Melinda Charis Hall, Mary Butterfield, Amy McKiernan, Sandy Skene, Sasha Alekseyeva, Thomas Dabay, Alison Suen, Trevor Bibler, Lara Giordano, Chris Wells, and, finally, Jessica Polish, whose singular intellectual energy pushed me further than I ever would have been able to go alone. On a personal note, I would like to thank James Bredeson, Peg Bredeson, and, of course, Amanda Carrico for their love and encouragement through the years. Finally, let take a moment to show my appreciation for the staffs of the libraries without whom none of my work on these topics would have been possible, including the libraries at Vanderbilt University, the University of Colorado, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Lawrence University, and Beloit College, as well as the interlibrary loan operations of countless others. iii Table of

A. A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin August 2011 ABSTRACT KNOWLEDGE AND THOUGHT IN HEIDEGGER AND FOUCAULT: TOWARDS AN EPISTEMOLOGY OF RUPTURES Arun Iyer, B.E., M.A. Marquette University, 2011 This dissertation shows how Martin Heidegger and Michel Foucault, by questioning the very understanding of the subject-object relationship on which all epistemology is grounded, challenge two of its most cherished beliefs: 1. Thought and knowledge are essentially activities on the part of the subject understood anthropologically or transcendentally. 2. The history of knowledge exhibits teleological progress towards a better and more comprehensive account of its objects. In contrast to traditional epistemology, both Heidegger and Foucault show how thought and knowledge are not just acts, which can be attributed to the subject but also events which elude any such subjective characterization. They also show us how the history of knowledge exhibits ruptures when the very character of knowledge undergoes drastic transformation in the course of history. The dissertation concludes by hinting at how these new accounts of thought and knowledge have the potential to shake the very foundations of epistemology and lead us to a new framework for discussing the most basic questions of epistemology, towards an epistemology of ruptures.

Place: Nijmegen, date: 30-09-2020. 2 Èthos and ek-sistence Humanism as an explicitly ethical preoccupation in Heidegger’s Letter on Humanism To stand under the claim of presence is the greatest claim made upon the human being. It is “ethics." 1 – Martin Heidegger Senne van den Berg Abstract: Martin Heidegger’s 1947 Letter on Humanism takes up a significant place in the oeuvre of the German philosopher. This important text is often discussed for two topics: Heidegger’s discussion of humanism, and his discussion of ethics as ‘abode.’ However, these two topics are being discussed isolated from each other, which obscures the inherent relation there is between the two for Heidegger. This paper will show that Heidegger’s discussion of humanism in the Letter is decisively shaped by his ethical preoccupations. I. Heidegger, humanism and ethics Martin Heidegger’s 19472 Letter on Humanism takes up a significant place in the oeuvre of the German philosopher.

  • Rejoining Aletheia and Truth: Or Truth Is a Five-Letter Word
    Old Dominion Univ. Rejoining Aletheia and Truth: or Truth Is a Five-Letter Word Lawrence J. Hatab EGINNING WITH Being and Time, Heidegger was engaged in thinking the Bword truth (Wahrheit) in terms of the notion of un concealment (aletheia).1 Such thinking stemmed from a two-fold interpretation: (1) an etymological analy­ sis of the Greek word for truth, stressing the alpha-privative; (2) a phenomenolog­ ical analysis of the priority of disclosure, which is implicit but unspoken in ordinary conceptions of truth. In regard to the correspondence theory, for example, before a statement can be matched with a state of affairs, "something" must first show itself (the presence of a phenomenon, the meaning of Being in general) in a process of emergence out of concealment. This is a deeper sense of truth that Heidegger came to call the "truth of Being." The notion of emergence expressed as a double-negative (un-concealment) mirrors Heidegger's depiction of the negativity of Being (the Being-Nothing correlation) and his critique of metaphysical foundationalism, which was grounded in various positive states of being. The "destruction" of metaphysics was meant to show how this negative dimension was covered up in the tradition, but also how it could be drawn out by a new reading of the history of metaphysics. In regard to truth, its metaphysical manifestations (representation, correspondence, correctness, certainty) missed the negative background of mystery implied in any and all disclosure, un­ concealment. At the end of his thinking, Heidegger turned to address this mystery as such, independent of metaphysics or advents of Being (un-concealment), to think that which withdraws in the disclosure of the Being of beings (e.g., the Difference, Ereignis, lethe).

  • Translating Hospitality: a Narrative Task 264 RICHARD KEARNEY
    Language and Phenomenology At !rst blush, phenomenology seems to be concerned preeminently with questions of knowledge, truth, and perception, and yet closer inspection re- veals that the analyses of these phenomena remain bound up with language and that consequently phenomenology is, inextricably, a philosophy of lan- guage. Drawing on the insights of a variety of phenomenological authors, including Husserl, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Gadamer, and Ricoeur, this collection of essays by leading scholars articulates the distinctively phenom- enological contribution to language by examining two sets of questions. The !rst set of questions concerns the relatedness of language to experience. Studies exhibit the !rst-person character of the philosophy of language by focusing on lived experience, the issue of reference, and disclosive speech. The second set of questions concerns the relatedness of language to inter- subjective experience. Studies exhibit the second-person character of the philosophy of language by focusing on language acquisition, culture, and conversation. This book will be of interest to scholars of phenomenology and philosophy of language. Chad Engelland is Professor of Philosophy and Chair of the Philosophy Department at the University of Dallas. He is the author of several books, including Ostension: Word Learning and the Embodied Mind (2014), Heidegger’s Shadow: Kant, Husserl, and the Transcendental Turn (Routledge, 2017), and Phenomenology (2020).

  • The Impossibility of Powerless Dasein and a Powerful World in Fundamental Ontology1
    THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF POWERLESS DASEIN AND A POWERFUL WORLD IN FUNDAMENTAL ONTOLOGY1 Alice Koubová In this article we would like to concentrate on two corresponding issues of Heidegger’s fundamental ontology presented in his work, Being and Time.2 These issues concern the interpretation of the struc- ture of the potentiality-of-being of Dasein and of the character of the “world” and of innerworldly beings. We will come to two problem- atic points of this conception: to the theme of the so called affairs in the frame of description of the world and to the theme of the so called third mode of existence in the context of the modal transfor- mation from inauthenticity to authenticity via Angst, conscience and being-toward-death. These issues should confirm that in fundamental ontology Heidegger neglects a key and decisive characteristic of the human being—its powerlessness as well as the essential character of the world—its power. We will touch by this the inner boundary of fundamental ontology and refer to the potential transgression of this philosophy. Basic Concepts It is well known that the human being plays an exceptional part among all beings in fundamental ontology. The concept of Dasein does not simply designate the human being, but the human being as being “there”: “the term Da-sein as a pure expression of being.”3 Dasein is a human being which makes it possible for phenomena 1 This text is published thanks to the following research project of the Czech Sci- ence Foundation: “Philosophical Investigations of Body Experiences: Transdisciplinary Perspectives,” GAP 401/10/1164.

  • Heidegger and Scripture: the Calling of Thinking in Our Abandonment
    Open Theology 2017; 3: 321–337 Phenomenology of Religious Experience Open Access Peter Costello* Heidegger and Scripture: The Calling of Thinking in Our Abandonment DOI 10.1515/opth-2017-0025 Received June 5, 2017; accepted June 14, 2017 Abstract: This paper seeks to perform an interdisciplinary reading of some scriptural passages in light of Heidegger‘s phenomenology generally and his discussion of thinking in particular. The paper treats one passage from Isaiah and two from the Gospels of Luke and John that highlight the human situation of signification (or meaning) and abandonment (or alienation). Using Heidegger‘s description of experience, which roots the logic and unfolding of meaning as expressing the structure of human existence, the paper proposes that the movement toward the divine that each of the scriptural passages embodies (albeit each in its own unique situation) moves us toward an essential insight--namely that the human being exists as a divine sign of care. As such a sign, humans exist not just as the reception of the calling but also as the very calling of thinking itself. Keywords: phenomenology; Heidegger; Husserl; signification; Continental philosophy of religion; abandonment “For I know their works and their thoughts, and I am coming to gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come and shall see my glory, and I will set a sign among them. From them I will send survivors to the nations….They shall bring your kindred from all the nations as an offering to the Lord” (Isaiah 66:18-21) “And Jesus said to him, ‘Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head’” (Luke 9:58) “Jesus said to her, ‘Do not cling to me, because I have not yet ascended to the Father.

Welcome to Professor 4 Chad Engelland First, our colleague Dr. Robert Wood celebrated his eightieth birthday on October 20th. Many of you will remember Dr. Wood from classes that you took with him, or even books by him that you read, such as Path into Metaphysics or Placing Aesthetics. Dr. Wood is not your Dr. Robert Wood publishes 5 typical retiree (although he teaches a reduced load of courses): instead of taking cruises or book on Hegel playing bingo, he … writes books! His new one is on Hegel; you may want to order a copy to learn more about this important, but immensely difficult thinker. Catching Up to my UD 6 Education A third cause for celebration (Dr. Wood’s book was the second) is the fact that this year, the by Thomas S. Hibbs ’83 Philosophy Department was able to appoint a new colleague, Dr. Chad Engelland. Shortly after he arrived in Irving, Dr. Engelland’s first book appeared. So we celebrated the recent William Jaworski ’93 8 release of his study, Ostension. (A piece in this newsletter explains what ostension means in this context.) Dr. Rosemann visits 10 Mexico City Fourthly and finally, we celebrated the publication of our first Aquinas Lecture.
