Heidegger's atheism

the refusal of a theological voice

Edición de la obra Heidegger's atheism

"Heidegger's Atheism explains what Heidegger meant when he said that all philosophy is atheistic. This book traces the development of his explanation of philosophy as a methodological atheism and relates it to his reading of Aristotle, Aquinas, and Nietzsche. A predominant issue throughout this study is Heidegger's pursuit of an answer to the question: How did God get into philosophy?". "Laurence Paul Hemming discusses a wide range of topics in this comprehensive work, including the influence of Heidegger on theologians such as Bultmann, Rahner, and Ott; the central themes of Being and Time; Heidegger's political decisions and involvement with National Socialism; and Jean-Luc Marion's reading of Heidegger. Hemming also provides an analysis of Heidegger's "turn" or Kehre. He addresses how Heidegger's understanding of das Ereignis, the event, relates both to his view of atheism and to the way he appropriated Nietzsche's proclamation of the death of God." "Heidegger's Atheism also attempts to trace new possibilities in the relationship between theology and philosophy in Heidegger's critique of metaphysics."--BOOK JACKET.
