Abstract

© Peter Lang GmbH Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften Frankfurt am Main 2017 All rights reserved. The book focuses on Heidegger's thoughtful repetition of early Greek thinking, and his receptive attention to the fragments of the Presocratics from our contemporary age. Their thought has a special value for him as the heritage which must be repeated anew in order to bring us back to the question of being and to open before us new avenues for existence. The author raises questions which help us to understand Heidegger as a thinker. He presents a deep analysis of Heidegger's interpretations of the Presocratics and contributes to a new, insightful understanding of Heideggerian philosophy. «The book deserves a wide reception among scholars who are interested in the Presocratics, Heidegger and contemporary philosophy.» Dr. Katherine Morris (University of Oxford) «Prof. Korab-Karpowicz (...) develops a consistent reading of Heidegger's historical studies, thereby significantly contributing to a new approach for the study of Heideggerian philosophy.» Dr. Michal Bizon (Jagiellonian University, Kraków).
