Inhaltsangabe

"We can feel the exhilaration that runs through this book as it focuses again and again on the mortal ecstasies of time... We can also feel the anxiety of this book, one that always touched with a sorrow that accompanies the mingling of death and deep love. Exhilaration and sorrow, and the combination of painstaking scholarly work with exceptional poetic sensitivity, are the hallmarks of the essays." -Charles Scott in Research in Phenomenology "An impassioned book, an excellent book, a book to be read and reread." - Pierre Trotignon in Revue Philosophique de la France et de L'Etranger "David Krell, already known as the outstanding translator of Heidegger into English, author of a number of excellent scholarly presentations of translated volumes- notably Heidegger's Neitzsche- offers us here a solid collection of brilliant essays....I heartily commend this fine book to to its readers. It is a book both lyrical and witzig with a humor inspired (in part) by Jacques Derrida. An authentic knowing permeates it- the kind of knowledge that prolonged acquaintance with the 'matter' of thought alone can give." -Michel Haar in Les Etudes Philosophiques David Farrel Krell is Professor and Chair of Philosophy at DePaul University and author of Postponements: Woman, Sensuality, and Death in Neitzsche (Indiana, 1986) and Of Memory, Reminiscence, and Writing: On the Verge (Indiana, 1990). He is also the editor and translator of Heidegger's four-volume Neitzsche, Early Greek Thinking, and Basic Writings (Harper and Row, 1979).
