Hölderlin’s Mnemosyne: A Reading

Charles Bambach

Mnemosyne offers a poetic time without dates or calendars, one that abandons “calculating anticipation” for an attunement that enters the moment — not as what is there for the subject, but one that is gathered in such a way that it is “wholly in the cradle rocking” (GA 75, p. 324)

From the Heidegger and Poetry conference by the European Center for Heidegger Studies

Heidegger on Art and Poetry
The Role of Language and Art in Revealing Truth [PDF]

Jiayao Gao

Language reveals and conceals reality; art embodies truths beyond words.

As Heidegger puts it, the question “Who are we?” has to remain a question “throughout our entire short lifetime.”

The Turn to Place and the Retrieval of the Human
Heidegger’s Critique of “Humanism”

Jeff Malpas

Human being, mortal being, plays a necessary role in the event of being, and yet it is not that in which the event of being is itself founded.

“Dis-humanization” in Lispector and Heidegger

Krzysztof Ziarek

The emptying of the nothing opens a beginning.

Facticity and Ereignis

Thomas Sheehan

What is responsible for the world itself as meaning-giving, i.e., as an open region of understanding that allows for the meaning of this or that thing?

Radical Contextuality in Heidegger’s Postmetaphysics
The Singularity of Being and the Fourfold

Jussi Backman

[T]he embeddedness of each instance of meaningful presence in a multidimensional context of references that makes it meaningful in a unique and singular way—runs through Heidegger’s work from his fundamental ontology to his mature thinking of Ereignis.

The Concept of Time (1924)

Martin Heidegger

Translated by Theodore Kisiel

What is time?

Burn out or fade away

Doug C. Wise

Heidegger called the mattering-horizon of non-human animals their ‘encircling ring.' THEN, in Heidegger's tale of fundamental ontology, A MIRACLE OCCURS.

Heidegger’s Return to the Cave
The Interpretation of the Platonic Cave Allegory and Theaetetus as an Early Indication of Kehre and Ereignis

Bogdan Mincă

Ereignis would be the original name for “the most central problem of philosophy,” as Heidegger calls it, namely (the abolition of) the distinction between subject and object.

Rethinking Being and Time as a Resource for Feminist Philosophy [PDF]

Charlotte Knowles

If Dasein is fundamentally neutral at an ontological level then we can both recognise the importance of gender to our existence, while being critical of binary and essentialist ideologies and the social forms they generate.

How presencing (Anwesen) became Heidegger’s concept of being [PDF]

Juan Pablo Hernández

On the one hand, it [τά ἐόντα] means what presences as present (gegenwärtig Anwesende); on the other, it means both what presences as present and what presences as non-present (ungegenwärtig Anwesende)

100th anniversary of the publication of Heidegger’s Being and Time

Martin Heidegger Biography

Martin Travers

A life lived is certainly more than philosophy; it may not be greater than philosophy but it is certainly more.

Expressionism of Being

Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht

[Heidegger] was admired for his ability to discover eccentric possibilities of thought in reading the classics, and even more for his attempt to articulate them in words that in no way satisfied the laws of elementary logic or the criteria for transparent definitions.

Heidegger’s Race
The Place of the Human in Heidegger’s Philosophy [DOCX]

Laurence Hemming

Heidegger’s principal aim, especially in unfolding his understanding of the history of beyng, is to free every understanding of beyng, and of the being of the human being, and above all every understanding of history itself, from the force of necessity or determinations of (historical) causality.

The Trouble with Ent-fernung

Dominik Zechner

A New Reconstruction

Pioter Shmugliakov

[W]onder defines the moment of the “first beginning” in Greece, whereas restraint is the fundamental attunement of the “other beginning.”

Mateja Kurir

Heidegger dwelled on the other side of the homely: the unhomely, the uncanny.

The Place-Being of the Clearing and Language
Reading Thomas Sheehan Topologically

Axel Onur Karamercan

Ereignis is what belongs to the existential structure of the understanding of being, a place of gathering where the possibility of differentiating phenomena from the site of disclosedness in which they appear (ἀλήθεια) occurs.

Studies on Heidegger

Andrzej Serafin

[T]he primordial meaning of truth is both ontological and phenomenological, denoting the movement of the manifestation of all phenomena out of what by itself remains hidden.

Peak complexity

Doug C. Wise

[L]ife is a physical field, das Offenfeld, and our local patch, ex-sistence, instances the highest value the field takes.

Gnosis and the Covert Theology of Antitheology
Heidegger, Apocalypticism, and Gnosticism in Susan and Jacob Taubes

Elliot R. Wolfson

The unhiddenness is fully unhidden when we discern that the essence of truth as unconcealment consists in overcoming the concealing, which is to say, when we fathom that unhiddenness is connected essentially with hiddenness, that untruth belongs inextricably to truth.

“We though Sing from the Indus:”
Hölderlin’s Philosophical Response to Heidegger

Sidra Shahid and Christian Skirke

Hölderlin’s nature is not some inert background to their encounter, but an agent that enables encounters.

The Artworks in Heidegger’s “Origin of the Work of Art”

Steven Haug

The nothing is not a mere absence — it does something.

Heidegger’s Antigone
The Ethos of Poetic Existence

Axel Onur Karamercan

Being able to go beyond the limits of the ordinary indicates one’s resoluteness for a dwelling that opens up a new horizon of being within which all can be reinterpreted.

Heidegger's Understanding of Hermeneutics Facticity and his Contribution to Caputo's Cold Hermeneutics in his Work entitled Radical Hermeneutics

Rifqi Khairul Anam

Ereignis is the way in which our facticity unfolds, the way in which we appropriate the possibilities that are given to us in our "thrownness."

From Ontological Difference to Difference in Itself
Heidegger and Deleuze

Gavin Rae

Heidegger insists that the questioning of the ontological difference must lead to the more ‘basic’ questioning of the ‘ground’ of that difference; a questioning that leads from the ontological difference to the event of Beyng.

Why Heidegger and Logic? [PDF]

Cyril Welch

[T]ruth is an event allowing us to make determinations as well as to form anticipations (hypotheses, hunches, theories) and to define regions of investigation — in short, to concern ourselves for “what's true” and to accumulate and bequeath “truths.”

A New Paradigm of Truth
On Badiou's Interpretation of Heidegger

Ørjan Steiro Mortensen

Heidegger opens up the possibility of a new discourse on truth outside of the critical paradigm established by Kant.

The Drafts of ‘Time and Being’
Division Three of Part One of Being and Time and Beyond

Theodore Kisiel

As the most original temporality, it is the most radical–the temporality that is fundamentally factical down to its abyssal ground, that is, the "propriating event" (Er-eignis)

International Zoom Conference — September 26-28, 2025

The Turning

Joan Stambaugh

The initial attempt in Being and Time to overcome the subject-object split and subjectivity in general is completely realized in these later works.

‘Rational Animal’ in Heidegger and Aquinas

Chad Engelland

[T]hough the identity and intelligibility of a thing can only be known through presence, it is known through presence as indifferent to presence and absence.

Nihilism in Transition
From Heidegger’s Nietzsche Lectures to the Four Notebooks

Andrew J. Mitchell

If being is what “unconceals” beings and being remains in default, then the unconcealment, too, must be concealed, despite, or indeed on account of, the very presence of beings, which is why the history of metaphysics is a history of beings.

[W]e should pluralize Heidegger’s “appropriating event” and “inception,” and put them to use in a better interpretation of action and politics than he himself developed.

Man's Dwelling [PDF]

Martin Heidegger

Translated by César A. Cruz

We still rush past the mystery of the “not” and of what is not.

Pre-established positionality

Zavtra

The very appearance of one positionality over any other indicates the final cause of the event as outside the body of the positionality that it springs from.

Circling the void
Using Heidegger and Lacan to think about large language models

Marc Heimann and Anne-Friederike Hübener

Both Heidegger's view of language and the mechanism of LLMs see meaning as arising from a system of interconnected parts

Mateo Belgrano

Gestell, as a clearing, imposes itself as the sole and totalitarian field of meaning.

The fascist state of mind desires low Shannon entropy

Doug C. Wise

Freiheit ist Ge-Stell.

Heidegger, The Contradiction of Being, and The Principle of Sufficient Reason

Filippo Casati

Heidegger’s Unfinished Project of the Four Notebooks
A Reconstruction

Andrew J. Mitchell

[T]he trace of Seyn’s self-refusal is precisely ontological difference.

Heidegger and Marcuse
On Reification and Concrete Philosophy

Andrew Feenberg

Marcuse diverges from Heidegger in arguing that the congruence of science, technology, and society is ultimately rooted in the social requirements of capitalism and the world it projects.

A Conversation with Jacques Derrida about Heidegger [PDF]

Edited and Translated by Katie Chenoweth and Rodrigo Therezo

[I]t’s when Heidegger wishes to distinguish himself from technology, right, that through the privilege accorded to the questioning mode, he continues to be too much of a technician.

Heideggerian socialism

Daniel O. Dahlstrom

Heidegger iterates Marx’s insistence on how the current historical and social dynamic (capitalism) alienates human beings from their humanity, their species.

How to Find the Other Inception in the First

Richard Polt

Das Ereignis is the thrower that throws us open, granting a clearing along with a domain for the own, for the authentic, for belonging.

Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht Reader of Martin Heidegger
conception of presence production [PDF]

Wellington Amâncio da Silva

[T]he “two metaphysical levels” of relation with the presence of the world, namely, “actual surface” related to culture of presence and “semantic depth”, based on the culture of sense.

Gerhard Krüger's Platonic critique of Martin Heidegger [PDF]

Antoine Pageau-St-Hilaire

Heidegger maintains that ἀλήθεια is yoked by the Idea, and his interpretation of the meaning of the latter is what allows him to conclude that the alethic conception of truth is put under the yoke of the orthotic conception.

Alienation and Freedom in Heidegger’s Beiträge

James Bahoh

[I]n the epoch of metaphysics Da-sein is a field alienated from its ground

Need Delimited
The Creative Otherness of Heidegger’s Demigods

Julia Ireland

[T]he between for Heidegger is originating in the way it gives difference: The demigods do not exclude the human and the divine because they first open their possibility in the way they place them into question.

Free to Read Otherwise
Heidegger Deciphering Hölderlin

Rodrigo Therezo

[I]f the playful non-essence always already belongs to the essence, then this essence is not so essential as we once thought

Not All Picturing is Picturing
Heidegger on the Possibility of Authentic Meaning in Images, Film, and Photography

Shawn Loht

Heidegger notably claims that art proffers a saving power against the totalizing tendency of representation and manipulation that characterizes the modern age.

Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
A Lesson on the Gigantic and Capital

Zanan Akin

Heidegger emphasized over and over that machination does not begin with modern technology and complex machines but with the reign of I as the subject which decides the objecthood of objects.

The Platonic Doctrine of Untruth
Heidegger’s Interpretation of Plato’s Theaetetus and the Natural Possibility of Opinion

SangWon Lee

Heidegger’s interpretation of the Theaetetus illuminates a positive meaning of opinion (δόξα): in so far as being shows itself through the everyday opinions of beings

On the Way to Thought
Heidegger’s Philosophical Practice

Elena Bartolini

Attunement is the unique possibility that precedes knowledge, and it represents a disposition of openness.

The ἀρχή concerning technology

Doug C. Wise

Heidegger does go beyond Aristotle in that Heidegger's ἀρχή, Ereignis, is much more of a needy user than is the unmoved mover.

Parmenides and Heidegger

Andrew Milward

In both, for thought to be anything at all, it must be the same as being.

Xenikos
Philosophy of and as Nihilism

Richard Polt

“Thinking” would no longer consist of trying to establish absolute presence, but would be a tentative, respectful tracing of historical meanings and an ongoing inquiry into what they show us.

Being and Existence (1966)

Theodor Adorno

The motivations and results of Heidegger’s thought movements can be construed even where they are not uttered; there is hardly a sentence of his without its positional value in the functional context of the whole.

From the Question Concerning Technology to the Quest for a Democratic Technology
Heidegger, Marcuse, Feenberg [PDF]

Iain Thomson

Heidegger’s understanding of technology thus overturns both traditional Marxist determinism, and liberal instrumentalism.

Heidegger and Professor Capobianco
Phenomenology vs. Crypto-metaphysics

Thomas Sheehan

Heidegger made the important distinction between (1) existentiel-personal acts of minding the meant and (2) the existential-structural essence that makes such acts possible, which he called Existenz.

Heidegger’s Questioning After Technology [PDF]

Babette Babich

We are still not thinking. We are still not questioning.

Shattering Presence
Being as Change, Time as the Sudden Instant in Heidegger’s 1930–31 Seminar on Plato’s Parmenides

Francisco J. Gonzalez

[I]n the case of Plato, Heidegger blamed his conflicted reading not only on the ambivalence of the great philosopher, but also on his own incomprehension.

Im-position
Heidegger’s Analysis of the Essence of Modern Technology

Daniel O. Dahlstrom

The key to us having a free relationship to modern technology rests, Heidegger proposes, on our experiencing it as a legacy and our role within it. Experiencing it in these ways keeps us in the free space of it, which by no means locks us “into a numb coercion” of “blindly” pursuing technology or “helplessly” raging against it and condemning it as the work of the devil.

A Field Guide to Heidegger
Understanding ‘The Question Concerning Technology’

David I. Waddington

We can realize that we, the Shepherds of Being, have a choice: we can bring-forth rather than challenge-forth.

Shannon entropy and das Ge-Stell

Doug C. Wise

The essence of Ge-Stell, Heidegger says, is “the danger.” Danger of what? Evidently loss of diversity.

Heidegger’s Doctrine of Meaning
His Bedeutungslehre

Thomas Sheehan

We are a kinetic field of intelligibility, and whatever falls within that dynamic field has its “direction” (its significance) determined by the movement of ex-sistence itself.

The Ontological Need (1966)

Theodor Adorno

Heidegger’s philosophy is like a highly developed credit system: one concept borrows from the other.

Pathos and Logos
Martin Heidegger on the Primacy of Affection in Aristotle’s Ontology of Human Being

Walter Brogan

Practical wisdom is the capacity to hear the call of our end as the source of human action and the capacity to call ourselves back resolutely to stand by this guiding force.

Variagenic collapse—notes on Rethinking Death in and after Heidegger

Doug C. Wise

Heidegger was persuaded that the Shannon entropy of Welt is decreasing, that Ge-Stell by way of constraints and orderings and regimes is producing a Borg planet.

Being before Time?
Heidegger on Original Time, Ontological Independence, and Beingless Entities

Tobias Keiling

Because Ereignis is a second-order phenomenon of the interaction between different forms of relationality, the different dimensions of time do not form an explanatory hierarchy.

Love: the Hidden Mood in Being and Time

Christos Hadjioannou

[L]ove is the hidden fundamental disposition in BT that operates as a motivator for angst, which is the formally indicated fundamental mood of authentic Dasein.

Riveted to a Monstrous Site
On Heidegger’s Beiträge zur Philosophie

Reiner Schürmann

This critical moment, when the phenomenological truth of the divine in its numerous past acceptations could become the “own” (eigen) of a historical human type, would be the event (Ereignis) to come.

Understanding Heidegger’s φύσις/nature distinction in light of fundamental and fallen attunements

Emily Hughes

Heidegger’s theory of affectedness, of being-disposed through attunements, is an hierarchical or stratified one.

Destruktion or Recovery?
Leo Strauss's Critique of Heidegger

Steven B. Smith

Strauss's emphasis on the irreducibly political character of natural right constitutes his greatest difference with Heidegger.

Another Chorology
Reading Heidegger’s Plato Books

Bret W. Davis

[I]nsofar as he sees his own thought as stepping back to the origins of metaphysics in order to think what comes both before the beginning and ater the closure of that history, Heidegger is never done with reading Plato, and we have only begun to understand and respond to his readings.

Qihong Wu

This new relation found in quantum mechanics, the retrocausality, seems counterintuitive but can be interpreted and supported by Heidegger’s philosophy.

‘LET IT BE’
Heidegger and Eckhart on Gelassenheit

Hakhamanesh Zangeneh

How and why is Heidegger led to this idea that every consciousness is self-consciousness?

We Have Never Been Animals
Heidegger's Posthumanism [PDF]

Steven Crowell

Heidegger does not embrace bio-posthumanism but insists on the "metaphysical" importance of a distinction between world and ring.

Transcendental Anarchy and the Practical A Priori
On Reiner Schürmann’s Reading of Heidegger

Raoni Padui

If anarchy is uncovered as something deeper than the distinction between theory and practice, to what extent does it make sense still to speak of the priority of one over the other?

The irreconcilable self in Heidegger’s logic of authenticity and event

James Bahoh

The logic of evental propriety and alienation forms the pre-personal ground of Dasein’s intrinsically problematic authentic selfhood.

Werner Marx and Martin Heidegger
What “Measure” for a Post-metaphysical Ethics?

Norman K. Swazo

Marx is concerned to identify a non-metaphysical ethos that allows for the virtues of justice, compassion, and neighborly love (including friendship, fraternity, and solidarity) as a corrective to indifference, and do so with reference to awareness of a common human mortality.

Two Conversations with Heidegger

Eugen Fink

Edited and translated by Giovanni Jan Giubilato and Ian Alexander Moore

The “difference” is not about keeping the truth of being away from metaphysical truth; rather, metaphysical truth must be thought anew from the truth of being.

Heidegger's Ontological Analysis of Language

Daniel O. Dahlstrom

'sense' does not apply to entities or even being; it is rather what the understanding projects the entities or being upon, such that their intelligibility is sustained.

Love and Mystery
Heidegger's Critique of Metaphysics as a Challenge to Whitehead

Jay McDaniel

While Heidegger emphasizes the openness and mystery of being, Whitehead foregrounds the presence of ideals and values that beckon humanity and shape the cosmos.

Heidegger’s “Mystical” Vision of Being

Richard Capobianco

[I]f we think through and past his occasional protestations about these terms, we realize that his later thinking of Being did indeed proceed through what he had identified early on as “intuition and feeling.”

Heidegger’s Critical Confrontation with the Concept of Truth as Validity

Joshua Fahmy-Hooke

[T]he logic of validity fails to show what the essence of truth is and why being, in relation to truth, must be maintained as that which is merely present.

Thaumanoia 2

Doug C. Wise

[I]t strikes me as performative contradiction to assert the fact of impossibles and also to seek a ground of the impossible, to adduce conditions for the possibility of impossibility.

On Heidegger’s Interpretation of the Will to Power as Art [PDF]

Jacques Taminiaux

In Heidegger’s interpretation, the Platonism Nietzsche attacks is simply the historical process of decline or of moving away from Plato’s genuine thought.

Thinking Against Humanism?
Heidegger on the Human Essence, the Inhuman, and Evil

Jack Wearing

Humanistic understandings of the human being never so much as raise the question of Being, and so fail to locate the human being in relation to it. In this sense, they are one and all ‘metaphysical’.

‘Befindlichkeit’ and ‘Pathe of Authenticity’ in Heidegger’s 1924 Course on Aristotle

Annalisa Caputo

When we say being emotionally situated in the world, we are saying that we are in the world as bodies, bodily being-in-the world. Heidegger's Dasein is not at all disembodied.

Poiētic Truth (Alētheia) in Archaic Greece
Comparative Anthropology / Heideggerian Intimations

James M. Magrini

The concern for the question of Being, ... is the search for the enabling power that makes possible, and so is responsible for, “the correlation between an entity’s givenness and the dative of that givenness.”

Transcendental Idealism and Strong Correlationism
Meillassoux and the End of Heideggerian Finitude

Jussi Backman

[T]here is at least one important sense in which Heidegger does remain an heir to transcendental idealism until the end: Ereignis remains a name for the correlation between being and thinking.

Heidegger on Presence

Richard Polt

Since the clearing is characterized by or originates in Ereignis, another new name for Being and Time might be “presence and appropriation”.

The End of Instrumentality?
Heidegger on Phronēsis and Calculative Thinking

Ian Alexander Moore

Particular actions may come to an end, but the need for action as such will not.

Yuk Hui

The task that is left to all of us is to rediscover these cosmotechnics in order to reframe modern technologies, namely, by reframing the enframing (Gestell).

Thinking the Abyss of History
Heidegger’s Critique of Hegelian Metaphysics

Ryan Johnson

What is important for Heidegger is that the self-concealment of the clearing, its nothingness, can never be “sublimated” (aufgehoben) or negated.

Thaumanoia

Doug C. Wise

Approximately, the ontopathology of everyday life is to Heidegger what the psychopathology of the same is to Freud: the phenomena of a primordial disclosive process: UnbewussteSeyn.

The Sacred in Thinging
Heidegger’s “Design” in the Light of Kantian Aesthetics and the Telos of Nature

Xiaochen Zhao

the entire worldliness, including the verdicts of heaven and the underworld, as well as nirvana, preserved in the storytelling of our ancestors, cycles once again as thinghood intersects with Dasein and enters the Open through the latter’s decision to make art

Heidegger’s Post-Western Politics

Alexander S. Duff

Philosophy alleviates nothing, eases nothing; it does not point beyond, to a value or standard beyond the people from whom it emerges. Instead it burdens.

Heidegger’s “Pre-Aristotelians”
Nietzsche and Heidegger on Anaximander

Babette Babich

Existence so understood as expressly, as specifically delimited existence, under one form or set of limits or borders or bounds as opposed to another, is the existence that is always, as Heidegger reminds us, in each case mine, whether taken up as a project or not.

Presence and the Greeks

Richard Polt

Heidegger investigates the source of the understanding of being as presencing, the donation of presencing as the sense of beingness. This source can be called Seyn or Ereignis, and he clearly distinguishes it from presencing.

An Ontological Reading of Sufism
Examining Sufism Through the Philosophy of Heidegger

Milad Milani

Muslims as Sufis can release themselves “into the nothing” by entering the clearing that is Sufism as mysticism—the ground of the mystical in Islam.

The Sacred in Thinging
Heidegger’s “Design” in the Light of Kantian Aesthetics and the Telos of Nature

Xiaochen Zhao

[T]he entire worldliness, including the verdicts of heaven and the underworld, as well as nirvana, preserved in the storytelling of our ancestors, cycles once again as thinghood intersects with Dasein and enters the Open through the latter’s decision to make art.

Heidegger on ‘Possibility’ [PDF]

Mark Sinclair

Dasein is the movedness of time

Heidegger’s Topology from The Beginning
Dasein, Being, Place [PDF]

Jeff Malpas

As a philosophical project, topology arises out of the simple recognition of the way all thinking begins with place, with our own being-placed, and with the questionability that belongs to them.

Heidegger and Foucault on modern technology
does Gestell ‘correspond perfectly’ to dispositif?

Kaspar Villadsen

[W]hereas Heidegger’s Gestell defines the ubiquitous modern mode of disclosure through which natural resources and human capacities appear, Foucault lays out a multiplicity of dis-positifs, each creating distinct visibilities.

Murdoch on Heidegger

Matt Dougherty

[W]hat Murdoch came to see in Heidegger was a continuous attempt to offer a more-or-less-systematic and all-encompassing picture of what she calls ‘the unconditioned’ and its essential relation to human being. That is the central task of what she calls ‘metaphysics’.

Being Without (Heidegger)

Marcia Sá Cavalcante Schuback

Being within the without is understood as a learning not of another way to be and to think, but rather of an unlearning. We could recall here a verse by the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa, who speaks about the need to aprender a desaprender, “to learn to unlearn.”

How Can We Live In The Common World

Min Seol

Dasein is not a self-sufficient substance but open to the world. I can exist only as long as I am open to the world.

Heidegger on Unconcealment and Correctness [PDF]

Taylor Carman

[T]he being-­uncovering of a belief is bound up with its being true as opposed to false, since we can regard beliefs as true only because we can have them.
