Opis

What if you could walk through Greece with Martin Heidegger, engage him in dialogue, and explore the depths of his masterpiece, Being and Time? This volume invites you on an imaginary journey alongside the philosopher, where each stop becomes an opportunity to explore-vividly and concretely-the major themes of his magnum opus: the question of Being, Dasein, being-in-the-world, facticity, understanding, care, anxiety, authenticity, temporality, projection, death, and freedom. Through these exchanges, you are guided on a journey that is both intellectually rigorous and profoundly engaging, illuminating the deepest dimensions of Heidegger's thinking, all within the timeless atmosphere of Greek wisdom. Whether you are new to Heidegger or already familiar with this seminal 20th-century thinker, this book invites you to rediscover how Being reveals itself in the fabric of everyday life-even as it has been progressively obscured by the metaphysical tradition-under the radiant light of the Greek islands or in the shadow of the Parthenon. A bold and accomplished attempt to draw Heidegger into a fictional conversation set in the places in Greece that meant most to him. The book explores key ideas from Being and Time with extraordinary clarity and vividness-especially those fundamental insights that still have the power to orient our lives today. In addition, the book offers genuine aesthetic pleasure.
- Rüdiger Safranski, author of Martin Heidegger: Between Good and Evil

An imaginary dialogue with Heidegger during a 1962 journey through Greece. Each stop offers a vivid exploration of the central themes of Being and Time: the meaning of Being, Dasein, worldhood, care, authenticity, death, freedom and more-under the timeless light of Greek philosophy.
