<p>"This exceedingly difficult yet revealing text might be characterized as "Heidegger on Heidegger," as it is a collection of notes and reflections by Heidegger on his earlier works, especially <i>Being and Time</i>, but also including "What is Metaphysics?", "The Origin of a Work of Art," <i>Country Path Conversations</i>, and "Letter on Humanism." Scott M. Campbell's translation is a masterful effort to capture both the spirit and the letter of this complicated but important text."—Drew Hyland, Scott Campbell<br /><br />"The only possible form of commentary that an author can himself give is interpretation in the form of a confrontation." Here we find Heidegger not only defending his work against misreadings, but also confronting it as his own most critical reader. Scott M. Campbell's meticulous translation offers illuminating English versions of these challenging texts. This unique volume is essential for serious students of Heidegger's thought."—Richard Polt, Scott Hyland</p>
Throughout his career, Martin Heidegger read and reinterpreted his own writings. This was part of the entirely self-critical orientation of the journey in the landscape of thought.
On My Own Publications is the first English-language translation of volume 82 of Heidegger's Complete Works. Started a decade after Being and Time (1927), much of this volume presents running commentary, interpretations, and insights of many of Heidegger's fundamental works, illuminating the philosopher's notes and personal thoughts on his own works and offering a rare look inside the mind of an influential thinker.
Focusing on several works including What Is Metaphysics? (1929), The Origin of the Work of Art (1935-36), and The Letter on Humanism (1946), On My Own Publications presents Heidegger reading, interpreting, and confronting some of his own most important and influential publications.
