Sojourns - The Journey To Greece

Informationen zum Autor John Sallis is Frederick J. Adelmann Professor of Philosophy at Boston College. He is the author of many books, including Klee's Mirror ; The Gathering of Reason: Second Edition ; and Platonic Legacies , all also published by SUNY Press. Klappentext The story of Martin Heidegger's enigmatic search for truth in the land that inspired his philosophy, Aufenthalte (Sojourns) is the philosophical journal that he kept during his first visit to Greece in the spring of 1962. Available here for the first time in English, this invaluable translation offers not only a rare and intimate view of its author, but also a chance to observe Heidegger working with his philosophical concepts outside the lecture hall, applying them in concrete cultural and historical contexts. Here we find Heidegger in dialogue with Greek history itself as it has left traces in the land, and as it has been recorded on various monuments and works of art.
