Heidegger? More like bye nigger

Basically
Meaning of being is a huge issue, he never resolved this even because he could only find one way to interrogate the issue which was understanding being for humans (which he called being for the thing for which being was at issue "dasein" being there)

Nothingness pokes through our ordered ideas in everyday situations very violent reminders of huge underlying issues in our ordering of things

Technology is dangerous it seems to select for itself organizations that limit the opportunity for understanding of underlying structures

Authentic living is very difficult

Art is a synthesis of a view of something while also highlighting the material of the thing, this shows being and the nothingness at the same time. True art is very rare, he thought van Goghs painting of old boots was an example, you see the old deterioration of boots but the paint is in such heavy strokes your vision can't make the material disappear. The vision is suspended between being and not being.

Poetry is the purest form of this suspension and Heidegger thought some of the biggest problems in human understanding could only be solved by poetry because of this.
Which he also implied might be our doom as he thought almost nobody could write proper poetry

Also he didn't do anything wing and refused to apologize for anything

this scares the SDP wähler

He really shouldn't be as cogent as he is.

I mean this seriously. His writings are the msot schizo of all I have read, and I have read most your staple "ebin schizo philoosphers"..

It is very surprising that he resonnated with many people so vehemently desu.

>The most thought-provoking thing in our thought-provoking time is that we are still not thinking.

Yes, it may remind you of Late Witty. Also, a Dialogue on Language may be interesting as a supplemental piece. I'd say to follow up this reading with John Sallis commentary, as Heidegger can be nebulous.

So it might seem to smooth-brained shallow readers. Read Boethius.

That's a neat little Herausfordern you got there.... be a shame if someone... revealed it

Gott strafe England

I am working back through Phenomenology in bits and pieces since I only got a basic overview in my Undergrad. This includes things like Husserl's Paris Lecture, sections of B&T, History of the Concept of Time, Preface to the Phenomenology of Perception, and B&N by Sartre. I am interested in the foundations started through Husserl. My eventual goal is to work back to Heidegger and the Kyoto school as my background is largely in Eastern phil.
