Being and Time was published in 1927 during the Weimar period in Germany, a time of political, social and economic turmoil. Heidegger himself did not escape the pressures and his nationalism, and undeniable anti-Semitism in the following decades cast a shadow over the man, but not the work. Being and Time is not coloured by expressions of his later views (unlike other writings) and remains an outstanding document.

Martin Heidegger's sympathies for the conservative revolution and National Socialism have long been well known. As the rector of the University of Freiburg in the early 1930s, he worked hard to reshape the university in accordance with National Socialist policies. He also engaged in an all-out struggle to become the movement's philosophical preceptor, "to lead the leader." Yet for years, Heidegger's defenders have tried to separate his political beliefs from his philosophical doctrines

Luc Ferry nous en apporte la preuve dans le présent coffret, en retraçant - avec un constant souci d'exigence et de clarté - les principales étapes d'une oeuvre décisive pour penser notre modernité.

Martin Heidegger, considered by some to be the greatest charlatan ever to claim the title of "philosopher", by some as an apologist for Nazism, and by others as an acknowledged leader in continental philosophy, is probably the most divisive thinker of the 20th century. In the second edition of this Very Short Introduction audiobook, Michael Inwood focuses on Heidegger's most important work, Being and Time, to explore its major themes of existence in the world, inauthenticity, guilt, destiny, truth, and the nature of time.

Hans Jonas et Günther Anders, élèves de Heidegger, respectivement ami et époux de Hannah Arendt, ont forgé des philosophies de penseurs juifs ayant vécu sous l'Allemagne nazie. Père du principe de précaution, Hans Jonas ouvre la voie de la bioéthique, ce questionnement primordial face à la nouvelle puissance créatrice mais aussi destructrice de la technique. Günther Anders alerte sur l'obsolescence de l'homme, encouragé à de plus en plus de passivité et d'anonymat face à la télévision, la radio et les divertissements.

Friedrich Schellings "Philosophische Untersuchungen über das Wesen der menschlichen Freiheit und die damit zusammenhängenden Gegenstände", auch bekannt als seine "Freiheitsschrift", gehört zu den zentralen Texten jener philosophisch so fruchtbaren Periode, die heute als Deutscher Idealismus bezeichnet wird. In ihr nähert sich Schelling der Beantwortung nach der Frage des Wesens der menschlichen Freiheit als Vermögen zum Guten und zum Bösen.

In 1929, Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) published his remarkable book Kant and the Problem of Metaphysics. The Kantbuch, as Heidegger often called it, is regarded by many as a vital supplement to the unfinished second part of Heidegger’s most influential work, Being and Time, which was published two years earlier in 1927.

This recording contains four important and related works by Heidegger: 'What Is Philosophy', 'What Is Metaphysics', 'On the Essence of Truth' and 'The Question of Being'.

Scholars have long known that Martin Heidegger was a Nazi, but many doubted that his philosophy had anything to do with Hitler’s ideology. Now Peter Trawny, drawing on Heidegger’s hidden notebooks, argues that the philosopher’s anti-Semitism was deeply entwined with his ideas.
