Through painstaking investigation of European archives and private correspondence  Theodore Kisiel provides an unbroken account of the philosophers early development and progress toward his masterwork.  Beginning with Heideggers 1915 dissertation  Kisiel explores the philosophers religious conversion during the bleak war years  the hermeneutic breakthrough in the war-emergency semester of 1919  the evolution of attitudes toward his phenomenological mentor  Edmund Husserl  and the shifting orientations of the three drafts of Being and Time. Discussing Heideggers little-known reading of Aristotle  as well as his last-minute turn to Kant and to existentialist terminology  Kisiel offers a wealth of narrative detail and documentary evidence that will be an invaluable factual resource for years to come.  A major event for philosophers and Heidegger specialists  the publication of Kisiels book allows us to jettison the stale view of Being and Time as a great book \"frozen in time\" and instead to appreciate the erratic starts  finite high points  and tentative conclusions of what remains a challenging philosophical \"path.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946526273589,"sku":"ByrdShop_0520201590","price":71.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780520201590.jpg?v=1769954682","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-genesis-of-heideggers-being-and-time","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
