Love and Mystery
Heidegger's Critique of Metaphysics
as a Challenge to Whitehead
Jay McDaniel
While Heidegger emphasizes the openness and mystery of being, Whitehead foregrounds the presence of ideals and values that beckon humanity and shape the cosmos.
Heidegger’s “Mystical” Vision of Being
Richard Capobianco
[I]f we think through and past his occasional protestations about these terms, we realize that his later thinking of Being did indeed proceed through what he had identified early on as “intuition and feeling.”
Heidegger’s Critical Confrontation with the Concept of Truth as Validity
Joshua Fahmy-Hooke
[T]he logic of validity fails to show what the essence of truth is and why being, in relation to truth, must be maintained as that which is merely present.
The muddled concept of life
from Lebensphilosophie to hermeneutic phenomenology in Heidegger’s earliest University lecture
[PDF]
Jethro Masís
Having broadened the scope of phenomenological research radically, Heidegger suddenly found himself in the pursuit of a completely unknown territory. But this was not another world, but the world as such.
Thaumanoia 2
Doug C. Wise
[I]t strikes me as performative contradiction to assert the fact of impossibles and also to seek a ground of the impossible, to adduce conditions for the possibility of impossibility.
On Heidegger’s Interpretation of the Will to Power as Art [PDF]
Jacques Taminiaux
In Heidegger’s interpretation, the Platonism Nietzsche attacks is simply the historical process of decline or of moving away from Plato’s genuine thought.
Thinking Against Humanism?
Heidegger on the Human Essence, the Inhuman, and Evil
Jack Wearing
Humanistic understandings of the human being never so much as raise the question of Being, and so fail to locate the human being in relation to it. In this sense, they are one and all ‘metaphysical’.
‘Befindlichkeit’ and ‘Pathe of Authenticity’ in Heidegger’s 1924 Course on Aristotle
Annalisa Caputo
When we say being emotionally situated in the world, we are saying that we are in the world as bodies, bodily being-in-the world. Heidegger's Dasein is not at all disembodied.
Poiētic Truth (Alētheia) in Archaic Greece
Comparative Anthropology / Heideggerian Intimations
James M. Magrini
The concern for the question of Being, ... is the search for the enabling power that makes possible, and so is responsible for, “the correlation between an entity’s givenness and the dative of that givenness.”
Transcendental Idealism and Strong Correlationism
Meillassoux and the End of Heideggerian Finitude
Jussi Backman
[T]here is at least one important sense in which Heidegger does remain an heir to transcendental idealism until the end: Ereignis remains a name for the correlation between being and thinking.
Heidegger on Presence
Richard Polt
Since the clearing is characterized by or originates in Ereignis, another new name for Being and Time might be “presence and appropriation”.
The End of Instrumentality?
Heidegger on
Phronēsis and Calculative Thinking
Ian Alexander Moore
Particular actions may come to an end, but the need for action as such will not.
Cybernetics for the 21st Century
Vol.1 Epistemological Reconstruction
Yuk Hui
The task that is left to all of us is to rediscover these cosmotechnics in order to reframe modern technologies, namely, by reframing the enframing (Gestell).
Thinking the Abyss of History
Heidegger’s Critique of Hegelian Metaphysics
Ryan Johnson
What is important for Heidegger is that the self-concealment of the clearing, its nothingness, can never be “sublimated” (aufgehoben) or negated.
Thaumanoia
Doug C. Wise
Approximately, the ontopathology of everyday life is to Heidegger what the psychopathology of the same is to Freud: the phenomena of a primordial disclosive process: UnbewussteSeyn.
The Sacred in Thinging
Heidegger’s “Design” in the Light of
Kantian Aesthetics and the Telos of Nature
Xiaochen Zhao
the entire worldliness, including the verdicts of heaven and the underworld, as well as nirvana, preserved in the storytelling of our ancestors, cycles once again as thinghood intersects with Dasein and enters the Open through the latter’s decision to make art
For the time Being
Heidegger’s Final Words in Vorläufiges I-IV
Joeri Schrijvers
What is needed, this late Heidegger says, is that phenomenology needs to be determined from out of Ereignis.
Heidegger’s Post-Western Politics
Alexander S. Duff
Philosophy alleviates nothing, eases nothing; it does not point beyond, to a value or standard beyond the people from whom it emerges. Instead it burdens.
Heidegger’s “Pre-Aristotelians”
Nietzsche and Heidegger on Anaximander
Babette Babich
Existence so understood as expressly, as specifically delimited existence, under one form or set of limits or borders or bounds as opposed to another, is the existence that is always, as Heidegger reminds us, in each case mine, whether taken up as a project or not.
Presence and the Greeks
Richard Polt
Heidegger investigates the source of the understanding of being as presencing, the donation of presencing as the sense of beingness. This source can be called Seyn or Ereignis, and he clearly distinguishes it from presencing.
An Ontological Reading of Sufism
Examining Sufism Through the Philosophy of Heidegger
Milad Milani
Muslims as Sufis can release themselves “into the nothing” by entering the clearing that is Sufism as mysticism—the ground of the mystical in Islam.
The Sacred in Thinging
Heidegger’s “Design” in the Light of Kantian Aesthetics and the Telos of Nature
Xiaochen Zhao
[T]he entire worldliness, including the verdicts of heaven and the underworld, as well as nirvana, preserved in the storytelling of our ancestors, cycles once again as thinghood intersects with Dasein and enters the Open through the latter’s decision to make art.
Heidegger on ‘Possibility’ [PDF]
Mark Sinclair
Dasein is the movedness of time
Heidegger’s Topology from The Beginning
Dasein, Being, Place
[PDF]
Jeff Malpas
As a philosophical project, topology arises out of the simple recognition of the way all thinking begins with place, with our own being-placed, and with the questionability that belongs to them.
Heidegger and Foucault on modern technology
does Gestell ‘correspond perfectly’ to dispositif?
Kaspar Villadsen
[W]hereas Heidegger’s Gestell defines the ubiquitous modern mode of disclosure through which natural resources and human capacities appear, Foucault lays out a multiplicity of dis-positifs, each creating distinct visibilities.
Murdoch on Heidegger
Matt Dougherty
[W]hat Murdoch came to see in Heidegger was a continuous attempt to offer a more-or-less-systematic and all-encompassing picture of what she calls ‘the unconditioned’ and its essential relation to human being. That is the central task of what she calls ‘metaphysics’.
Being Without (Heidegger)
Marcia Sá Cavalcante Schuback
Being within the without is understood as a learning not of another way to be and to think, but rather of an unlearning. We could recall here a verse by the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa, who speaks about the need to aprender a desaprender, “to learn to unlearn.”
How Can We Live In The Common World [PDF]
Min Seol
Dasein is not a self-sufficient substance but open to the world. I can exist only as long as I am open to the world.
Heidegger on Unconcealment and Correctness [PDF]
Taylor Carman
[T]he being-uncovering of a belief is bound up with its being true as opposed to false, since we can regard beliefs as true only because we can have them.
Sense and Meaning
From Aristotle to Heidegger
Thomas Sheehan
[S]ense/meaning are the subject matter—the Befragtes—of all Heidegger’s work.
Heidegger, Hölderlin, and Eccentric Translation
Julia Ireland
[T]he specifically initiatory dimension of the foreignness of the foreign language moves us from the pole of interlingual translation to the pole of innerlingual translation, “translating” us, so to speak, into the very movement of translation as this is realized in the root unfolding of language.
Call for papers
The Heidegger Circle 2025
The theme of the meeting is Through Machination Toward Dwelling: Inceptive Thinking and the deadline for submissions is January 15, 2025. Please send inquiries to Douglas Peduti at pedutipgh2025@gmail.com and submissions/proposals with the words “HC 2025 submission” in the Subject line.
Rethinking Dwelling
Heidegger and the Question of Place [PDF]
Jeff Malpas
[O]ne of Heidegger's most important insights is the recognition that the world opens up only in and through the bounded singularity of place.
Free to Read Otherwise
Heidegger Deciphering Hölderlin
Rodrigo Therezo
[I]f the playful nonessence always already belongs to the essence, then this essence is not so essential as we once thought, and that it is really not our place to decide between terms that we cannot neatly keep apart.
Heidegger on Hölderlin’s Hymn Der Ister
The Dwelling of the Poet and the Place-Making of the River
Axel Onur Karamercan
If the possibility of dwelling as “becoming-at-home” depends on the possibility of a “homecoming” and on the appropriation of the origin from the end, this means that dwelling signifies the hermeneutic capacity to re-interpret the home.
Death and Authenticity
Reflections on Heidegger, Rilke, Blanchot [PDF]
Jennifer Anna Gosetti-Ferencei
[D]eath is nothing to be actualized, not even in the imagination, because it is, precisely, and gives, precisely, nothing.
The politics of silence
Heidegger’s black notebooks [PDF]
Adam Knowles
What is so fascinating about the Black Notebooks is that, in so many ways, they beg not to be read. They seem written so as to be written off.
Uniqueness and the Event
rethinking the horizonal in Martin Heidegger's Contributions to philosophy (of the event)[PDF]
Matthew Hanasyk
[T]he ground itself withdraws into concealment and so can never be secured beyond the temporal revelation of its withdrawal. In fact, the revealing of this withdrawal into concealment is precisely the truth of beyng itself.
Now in HTML
“The Problem of Science” in Nietzsche and Heidegger
Babette Babich
Contra received logic, Heidegger proposes the radical poverty of reflective thinking: thought, in all its modesty.
Deciding the Fate of the State
Heidegger, Thucydides and the Boden of Ontology
Aengus Daly
When Dasein speaks in fallen everydayness, it seeks to show itself as having already known everything in advance
Call for papers
Gatherings: The Heidegger Circle Annual 2025
Building Dwelling Thinking
Martin Heidegger
Translation and Commentary by Adam Bobeck
Spirit-power talking
Doug C. Wise
Heidegger treats the poetry as reporting the Befindlichkeit of stone.
Plato and Heidegger on Sophistry and Philosophy
Jens Kristian Larsen
That Aristotle’s understanding of the good is ontological is thus not the result of his disregarding ‘values’, but simply of his radical attempt to understand the good for each thing primarily on the basis of the way each thing can be said to be.
Call for Papers
West Coast Heidegger Workshop 2025
Loyola Marymount University, Los Angeles
January 17th - 18th, 2025
Keynotes by Julia Ireland and Francisco Gonzalez
New book online
Martin Heidegger as Interrogator
The Final Paradigm
Daniel Fidel Ferrer
Heidegger did send us a “message;” namely, to ponder philosophical questions. Just like he said of Aristotle, all of the questions are still “open”.
Logos, Muthos, Theos
Heidegger’s Phenomenology and the Sacralization of Being
Larry Hatab
[A] mythical world of meaningful life is a mode of dwelling immune to critique by a standard of scientific objectivity.
Amid Germania’s Holidays
From Dasein’s Sieg to Hitler’s Sieg Heil
Rodrigo Therezo
Derrida is then right to emphasize a radical alterity of every Dasein, not just in the sense of being as other but in the more ontic sense of other beings who are nevertheless constitutive of Dasein’s ownmost Seinkönnen.
Eric Voegelin and Martin Heidegger on the Anaximander Fragment
Thomas W. Holman
For both, Anaximander articulates the justice of order according to the interplay of things and the apeiron, where apeiron is conceived as both the limitless and the ordering principle (or arche) of the interplay.
Should We Fear Large Language Models?
A Structural Analysis of the Human Reasoning System for Elucidating LLM Capabilities
and Risks Through the Lens of Heidegger's Philosophy [PDF]
Jianqiu Zhang
LLMs, like Heidegger's concept of "Das Man" or the "they," which are reliant on verbal relational links, are categorically inauthentic.
Disentangling Heidegger's Transcendental Questions
Chad Engelland
The reconstruction of the preparatory question (SZ I.1-2) and its reversal (SZ I.3) reveals that Heidegger’s later criticism of the (preparatory) transcendental question in fact relies on the success of the question. Transcendental terms become translated into the terms of Ereignis and its “reciprocity” (Gegenschwung).
Heidegger and the ‘There Is’ of Being [PDF]
Kris McDaniel
Some expressions ‘cut closer to the metaphysical joints’ than others. Among the expressions that cut closest are what I called ‘semantically primitive quantifier expressions’ that correspond to (possible) senses of ‘being’ that in turn correspond to Heidegger’s fundamental modes of being.
A Proposal for Translating Heidegger’s Interpretation of Kant
Morganna Lambeth
[W]hen he interprets other thinkers, he adopts a terminology that is foreign to his ordinary way of writing. ... When translated, these interpretations should read differently than when Heidegger builds his own terminology in order to express his own philosophical positions.
Martin Heidegger’s Concept of Understanding
(Verstehen)
An Inquiry into Artificial Intelligence [PDF]
Joshua D. F. Hooke
Those seeking to use Heidegger to illustrate the limitations of AI should recognize that both divisions of Being and Time are crucial to their argument.
Heidegger's Being and Time Paraphrased and Annotated
Foreword and Afterword
Thomas Sheehan
In approaching SZ it is important to get off on the right foot, and that entails understanding the presuppositions underlying his work.
Two hermeneutical motives in Reading the Constitution
Doug C. Wise
[W]hat divides textualists from purposivists may be more in the nature of a Holmesian can't-help, a difference in ‘the world as I found it,' thematic commitment, Grundbefinden.
Revisiting Presence
Richard Polt
Even if he accepts presence as our destined and inescapable meaning of being, presence is enabled by a mysterious—let us say—“event” that lets things come to the fore while it itself keeps quiet.
Nothingness and Paraconsistent Logic [PDF]
Hinna Khaan
This deficiency in logic leads Heidegger to the idea that the true logic is ontological and what is usually known as logic is nothing but a contingent expression of it.
‘What Is, Is More than It Is’
Adorno and Heidegger on the Priority of Possibility
Iain Macdonald
[I]f there is any truth to the priority Heidegger gives to possibility, then it should also be expressible outside that philosophy, in another context
Thinking the Event in Heidegger's "Black Notebooks" [PDF]
Sebastiano Galanti Grollo
Thinking should take place in a state of waiting in order to receive what is essential, which does not come about on the basis of the human will. For this purpose, it is necessary for thought to derive from the event itself – Vom Ereignis – as a response to the call of being.
Sprache als Be-wëgen
The Unfolding of Language and Being in Heidegger's Later Work, 1949-1976
Doug Peduti
Language disposes as Ereignis in conversation. While man’s being is grounded in language, grounding occurs only in conversation.
Paganism as a Political Problem
Levinas’s Understanding of Judaism in the 1930s
Michael Fagenblat
Behind Levinas’s idea of religious exigency of “excendence” lies Heidegger’s notion of the spiritual quality of ontological transcendence
Heidegger's Transcendentalism [PDF]
Daniel O. Dahlstrom
But Heidegger also seems to betray unmistakable vestiges of modern transcendentalism as well, especially when one considers the characteristic turn of modern transcendentalism from experience to the conditions of the possibility of experience.
Rules for the Human Park
A Response to Heidegger’s “Letter on ‘Humanism’”
Peter Sloterdijk
Translated by Ian Alexander Moore and Christopher Turner
[B]y exposing and asking out beyond the conditions of European humanism [...], Heidegger entered a trans-humanist or post-humanist realm of thought in which an essential part of philosophical reflection on the human being has moved ever since.
Heidegger's Antigones
Clare Pearson Geiman
τέχνη, here conceived as a secondary form of knowledge whose scope is limited to nonhuman ways of being, becomes the dominant model for conceiving human Being and human knowing.
Heidegger’s Reticence
From Contributions
to Das Ereignis and toward Gelassenheit
Daniela Vallega-Neu
The inceptive appropriating event clears an openness, with which Heidegger rethinks the “there” of being-there, the open site (or time-space) for the truth of beyng.
Brokenness of Being and Errancy of Ontological Untruth
Susan Taubes’s Criticism of Heidegger’s Seinsdenken
Elliot R. Wolfson
The unspoken is not simply what is not vocalized ..., but it is rather what is unremittingly withheld as the unsaid, the mystery of all mysteries of the thoughtful saying ..., the concealment that persists as concealed in the disclosure of the concealment disclosed in the concealment of disclosure ....
The Three “Fundamental Deceptions” of Being and Time
Heidegger’s Phenomenology Revisited
David Charles Abergel
[P]henomenology for the young Heidegger was never a descriptive enterprise oriented toward givenness, but always, however obliquely presented throughout the 1920s, a way of participating in the creative unfolding of the site of Being’s happening.
On Beginning Über den Anfang
Richard Polt
The inceptive event is a grounding of a question (Who are we? What does being mean?), a grounding of a problem, a grounding of a displacement.
Heidegger and German Idealism
Peter Trawny
[German Idealism] does not come to a “question of being.” ... In the thinking of Heidegger the “finitude” of the human being is what “comes to view.”
The importance of the nothingness of what we care about
Doug C. Wise
Nothing other than itself, and itself an abyss; in Heidegger's alternative usage, Nichtigkeit.
Heidegger on Unconcealment and Correctness [PDF]
Taylor Carman
Beliefs and assertions uncover entities, that is, only because human beings disclose worlds.
Black as the New Dissonance
Heidegger, Adorno, and Truth in the Work of Art
Jensen Suther
Preservation in the sense of the disclosure of truth becomes questionable in the age of modern technology because enframing has greatly diminished our capacity for understanding ourselves as historical beings formed by institutions we sustain and transform through our practices.
Material calculation and its unconscious
approaching computerization with Heidegger and Lacan
Marc Heimann & Anne-Friederike Hübener
Heidegger assumes that the modern mode of being is structured by computability (Berechenbarkeit), which means a universal quantification of things into energy to create more energy.
On the Right to Kick a Rock
The Argumentum ad Lapidem and
Heidegger’s “The Argument against Need”
Richard Polt
In the order of the evolution of the human species, as well as in the development of a child, bodily effort and resistance come before a full-fledged world, in which we pursue ways of existing by adopting possibilities in a cultural and historical context.
Neither Philosophy nor Theology
The Origin in Heidegger’s Earliest Thought
Erik Kuravsky
[T]he first beginning of philosophy originates as the inceptual event through which an incalculable movement of history is brought forward in the direction of its own Origin, which, being paradoxically futural, is thus capable of being enacted as the other beginning.
Plato’s Other Beginning
John Sallis
Truth as ἀλήθεια would make possible truth as correctness by setting forth a look, a presenting foreground, to which apprehension could correspond and so be correct.
Heidegger and the Problem of Translating the Greek Beginning
Marco Cavazza
Heidegger’s language carves a furrow within the German language that, paradoxically, the foreign reader may feel while the native speaker does not
Human as ζοον λόγον ἔχον and in-der-Welt-sein
Seeking gathering, the one always in relation
Elena Bartolini
The meaning of human being’s existence has to be found in this space, in the relational openness where it finds itself.
“Worlds, Worlding”
Tobias Keiling
Worlding is thus characterized by an experience that can be defined as the opposite of alienation: the experience enters into a mode of heightened authenticity, in which I grasp myself all the more as I am more strongly integrated into the context of meaning in which something shows itself as something.
The Question of Ontological Dependency
Mark A. Wrathall
As we become habituated in a particular way of making sense of entities, we shelter, preserve, and maintain the “openness” within which entities can manifest themselves.
On Heidegger and Ortega y Gasset
the Spanish being and its tragic condition of existence
Juan José Garrido Periñán
[B]ecause living opens one up to death, every thinker who loves life, as I think Ortega y Gasset and Unamuno, among others, did, has to accept the imperative of death as something that belongs to living itself.
On Need: Mortality and Heidegger’s “Argument” with Science
Andrew J. Mitchell
The essence of the human is to be thought of as a guarding and the human as a “guardian.” The guarded here is “the event,” and through the guarding of it, the human belongs to it.
Scheler’s Critique of Heidegger’s Fundamental Ontology [PDF]
Daniel O. Dahlstrom
On the final pages of Scheler’s critical notes to Being and Time, he makes the following observation: “What would the human being mean if he had only to care for himself and the world - and not also for its ground? He would be a footnote to being.”
Discourse and disclosure, Law and Gospel, and the like (notes on The Culmination)
Doug C. Wise
For Paul and Heidegger the law and metaphysics ‘been on the job too long,’ with consequent lethal curse.
Propositions on Heidegger's 'Being-Historical Thinking'
Peter Trawny
Being reveals and conceals not in but as history.
Saying the Unsayable
Heidegger on the Being-in-Itself of Beings
William McNeill
The essence of the human being is “needed” for the event (Ereignis) of such emergence into unconcealment, into presencing (Anwesen). Being-in-itself, the presencing of beings-in-themselves, is thus dependent on the human essence.
Radical conservatism and the Heideggerian right
Heidegger, de Benoist, Dugin
Jussi Backman
[The other beginning] views being as an ongoing, dynamic event of meaning-constitution that constantly situates and (re)contextualizes meaningful presence—as Ereignis, the temporal and spatial event or “taking place” of meaningfulness in and through the reciprocal correlation between the givenness of meaning and human receptivity to meaning.
Heidegger, the Scourge of the Enlightenment
Richard Polt
Heidegger’s way of raising the questions is especially provocative; even at his most parochial and perverse, his texts challenge defenders of reason to reason more clearly and carefully, with greater attention to reason’s limits.
Untruth
John Sallis
The systematic character of Heidegger's thinking lies not only in its retention of irreducible negativity but also in its structure as a progression of forms in which this negativity takes shape in the guise of untruth.
Heidegger’s Legacy and the Need/Use of Being
Christopher D. Merwin and Ian Alexander Moore
Heidegger’s “Legacy” manuscript and the Brauch material in particular – for all their interpretive challenges – give us something of a final articulation of the relation between Dasein and being.
Heidegger and the Phenomenology of Film
Film-Philosophy journal, Volume 28, Issue 1, February, 2024
Special dossier on Shawn Loht’s Phenomenology of Film: A Heideggerian Account of the Film Experience (2017) organised by Robert Sinnerbrink.
The Anfang to come
Weian Ding
The task of the“other beginning” is, in fact, a philopatry to the first site of the first beginning through the vestige and remnant left by the description of Beyng.
Heidegger's Culmination of German Idealism
A Dialogue with Robert Pippin [Podcast]
Converging Dialogues
Gatherings Volume 13, 2023
The Heidegger Circle Annual
With contributions from: Scott Campbell, Babette Babich, Erik Kuravsky, Teelin Lucero, Christopher D. Merwin, Ian Alexander Moore, Richard Polt, William McNeill, Andrew J. Mitchell, Tobias Keiling, Theodore George, Jennifer Gosetti-Ferencei, Rebecca A. Longtin, John Lysaker, Pol Vandevelde, Lucas Buchanan Carroll, and Jeffrey Patrick Colgan.
Crisis and Twilight in Martin Heidegger’s “Nietzsche’s Word ‘God is Dead’”
Babette Babich
[T]he madman comes to teach those in the marketplace, as Nietzsche points out in The Gay Science, that they have done this to themselves. For Heidegger: “They no longer seek because they no longer think.”
Introduction to a Future Way of Thought
On Marx and Heidegger
Kostas Axelos
Edited by Stuart Elden. Translated by Kenneth Mills.
Nihilism as the empire of the mastery of the will to will—already Nietzsche saw that: the will “would rather will the nothing than not will”—, and as the epoch of technology (itself understood as “metaphysics in completion”), perhaps forms the core of Marxism, its driving truth.
Another Kunststück des Lebens—nackte Geworfenheit
Doug C. Wise
Dasein's fundamental authentic project is to make sense of its very sense-making.
The Point of Language in Heidegger’s Thinking
A Call for the Revival of Formal Indication
Lawrence J. Hatab
[A]ll philosophical concepts are formal indications, “formal” in gathering the focal meaning of lived experiences, and “indications” in pointing to engaged circumstances and practices that cannot be fully captured in, or exhausted by, formal concepts.
Heidegger & Antisemitism [audio stream]
Matthew Sweet, Maximilian de Gaynesford, Peter Osborne, Daniel Herskowitz, and Donatella Di Cesare
BBC radio 3 show
Questioning Heidegger's Silence
Babette Babich
The postmodern is not a moment beyond the modern. Instead, what is represented by the postmodern is the unmasterable, disappointed condition of the Enlightenment ideal of modernity "after Auschwitz."
What's in a Word?
Heidegger's Grammar and Etymology of “Being”
Gregory Fried
Language is not a being at all, but, like Being itself, it is what gives us access to all beings in the first place.
Heidegger's Method
Philosophical Concepts as Formal Indications [PDF]
Daniel O. Dahlstrom
If Heidegger's characterization of philosophical concepts as formal indications possesses a significant similarity to the nature of artistic composition, it has even closer ties to what he understands as the theological formation and development of Christian belief.

Tentatio as fallenness and death as Care
Of Dasein’s many faces in early and later writings
Ulkar Sadigova
Being is always disclosed to such falling – hence the ontological being is always concerned with falling and always falling itself. Tota vita—tentatio; all life is falling.

For the time Being
Heidegger’s Final Words in Vorläufiges I-IV
Joeri Schrijvers
[Heidegger] laments that what is lacking today is “phenomenological discipline” (which is something else than the discipline of phenomenology), one that is not biased by one or the other philosophical position and lets itself be determined by the claim of the Sache, the matter of thinking.
“The Last God” in Heidegger’s Contributions to Philosophy
Moses Aaron Angeles
Beginning means both the one beginning, that is the most originary inceptive occurrence of being in its truth, and the beginning again in a more futural sense, but of a “future,” a coming to be that is already there, but not yet in being.

Owned Emotions
affective excellence in Heidegger on Aristotle
Katherine Withy
Owning our emotions is thus not a matter of choosing them but of choosing to let them be what they are, as genuinely disclosive.
Tomlinson on deconstraint (Ereignis) and epicycle (Ge-Stell)
Doug C. Wise
In Heidegger's work the Master Signifier of human uniqueness is Ereignis.
On the Absence and Unknowability of God
Heidegger and the Areopagite (1967)
Christos Yannaras
Translated by Haralambos Ventis, introduction by Andrew Louth
Heidegger's analysis, although it applies to the western tradition of what Heidegger calls "onto theology", it does not take account of the Orthodox tradition of apophatic theology, of which Dionysius the Areopagite is a pre-eminent example.
Spoiling the Party?
Heidegger’s Lectures on Trakl at Spa Bühlerhöhe
Tobias Keiling and Ian Alexander Moore
[I]t is difficult, at first blush, to understand how, of all people, Trakl—the drug-addled, Austrian expressionist in love with decay and obsessed with his sister—could become for Heidegger the next “poet of the Germans” and take on the role of savior of the German people and indeed of the entire Occident.
Gottwesen and the De-Divinization
of the Last God
Heidegger’s Meditation
on the Strange and Incalculable
Elliot R. Wolfson
Temporally, the notion of the last god is an instantiation of Heidegger’s open circle, the return to the beginning that never was, the genuine iteration of the again that is altogether otherwise.
Event and Nothingness
Krzysztof Ziarek
As event, the Ereignis does not offer itself in any positive manner, but precisely as its own ex- or dispropriation. It events by dis- or deventuating: Ereignis gives only as Enteignis; or there is Ereignis only as Enteignis.
Martin Heidegger and the Aletheia of his Greeks
Vrasidas Karalis
Aletheia meant responsivity between the seer and the seen, a relation of mutual interpenetration: the knowing subject changes its forms of understanding as the known object is resignified.
Heidegger's Gesamtausgabe as a Philosophical Problem: Prolegomena
Theodore Kisiel
[C]an this temporal field of a GA perhaps also be understood in the equiprimordial register of truth as unconcealment, such that the “institutional errancy” of family, publishers, editors and translators that in fact has manifested itself in the erratic path of the GA can itself be justified in Heideggerian terms, as what Heidegger himself in fact anticipated?
Fink and Heidegger on Cosmological and Ontological Play: A Confrontation
Ian Alexander Moore
Heidegger considers not just the human but primordial being (or beyng) itself to be finite. Indeed, according to Fink, this is what distinguishes Heidegger’s philosophy from that of all of his predecessors.
