Description
Written in 1938/9, Mindfulness (translated from the German Besinnung) is Martin Heidegger's second major being-historical treatise. Here, Heidegger develops some of his key concepts and themes including truth, nothingness, enownment, art, and Be-ing, and discusses the Greeks, Nietzsche, and Hegel at length.
In addition to the main text, the book also includes two further important essays, "A Retrospective Look at the Pathway" (1937/8) and "The Wish and the Will (On Preserving What is Attempted)" (1937/8). In these essays, Heidegger surveys his unpublished works and discusses his relationship to Catholic and Protestant Christianity, while reflecting on his life's path.
This is a major translation of a key text from one of the most important thinkers of the 20th century, now available in the Bloomsbury Revelations Series.
