This extremely rich volume gathers more than thirty brand-new essays by leading scholars to explore the many meanings of âAfter Heidegger.â Is his philosophy a thing of the past? Is our way of thinking influenced by Heidegger like Francis Baconâs âStudy after VelĂĄzquezâ is indebted to the Spanish painter? Do we go 'after' Heidegger like spurned lovers or dogged investigators?
- Dieter Thomä, Professor of Philosophy at the University of St Gallen, and editor of the Heidegger Handbuch,
