    Χάιντεγγερ εναντίον Παραδοσιοκρατών

    All the rage in L.A.

    6,994 words

    English original here

    Μετάφραση: Λόενγκριν

    1. Εισαγωγή

    Οι ανήκοντες στη Νέα Δεξιά συνδέονται εν μέρει μέσω κοινών πνευματικών ενδιαφερόντων. Στον κατάλογό μου αυτών των ενδιαφερόντων θα κατέτασσα σε υψηλή θέση τα έργα του Μάρτιν Χάιντεγγερ  και εκείνα της Παραδοσιοκρατικής [1] [2] σχολής , ειδικά του Ρενέ Γκενόν και του Ιουλίου Έβολα. Η δική μου δουλειά επηρεάστηκε σε μεγάλο βαθμό τόσο από τον Χάιντεγγερ όσο και από την Παραδοσιοκρατία. (more…)

    Remembering Martin Heidegger:
    September 26, 1889–May 26, 1976

    4,704 words

    Translations: Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Ukrainian

    Martin Heidegger is one of the giants of twentieth-century philosophy, both in terms of the depth and originality of his ideas and the breadth of his influence in philosophy, theology, the human sciences, and culture in general.

    Heidegger was born on September 26, 1889, in the town of Meßkirch in the district of Sigmaringen in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. He died on May 26, 1976 in Freiburg and was buried in Meßkirch. (more…)

    Mishima: The Last Debate

    1,367 words

    Yukio Mishima (1925–1970) was one of the giants of Japanese letters as well as an outspoken Right-wing nationalist. Mishima shocked the world on November 25, 1970, when he and members of his private militia, the Tatenokai or Shield Society, took hostage the commander of the Japan Self-Defense Force’s Ichigaya Camp. Mishima then delivered a speech to the assembled soldiers and press, exhorting the Japanese to turn away from American-imposed consumerism back to their traditional aristocratic culture, which prized honor above life and comfort.

    Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part Ten:
    Kant & the Metaphysics of Presence

    1961 West German Bundespost stamp featuring Kant

    6,542 words

    All essays in this series available here

    1. Introduction

    With this, the tenth essay in this series, we have reached a significant milestone. Our journey has taken us from Plato to Kant, and this is the fourth essay on Heidegger’s Kant interpretation. In the last installment, we saw that Kant is struggling to transcend the representationalist paradigm, but that he is inconsistent in this. (more…)

    Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part Nine:
    Kant & the Perils of Representationalism

    M. C. Escher, Hand with Reflecting Sphere, 1935.

    6,864 words

    All essays in this series available here

    1. Introduction

    My two previous essays introduced readers to Kant’s transcendental idealism and discussed the similarities and differences between Kant’s critique of metaphysics and Heidegger’s. It is now time to begin to consider Heidegger’s critique of Kant, and how Heidegger locates him within his history of metaphysics. (more…)

    Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part Seven:
    Kant’s Transcendental Idealism

    1974 West German Bundespost stamp, commemorating Kant’s 250th birthday

    5,568 words

    Part 1 here, Part 2 here, Part 3 here, Part 4 here, Part 5 here, Part 6 here

    1. Introduction

    In the previous essay in this series, we saw Heidegger claiming that Leibniz “prepares” the completion of the metaphysical tradition, but that it is Nietzsche who actually brings it about. I will devote a future essay to Heidegger’s interpretation of Nietzsche, but we may note here that the completion of metaphysics would have been impossible without Kant, who answers Leibniz and inadvertently prepares the way for Nietzsche.

    Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part Six:

    Part 1 here, Part 2 here, Part 3 here, Part 4 here, Part 5 here

    1. Introduction: Leibniz and the Completion of Metaphysics

    Gottfried Wilhelm, Freiherr von Leibniz (1646–1716) is one of the most extraordinary figures in the history of ideas. A true polymath, he was not only a philosopher but a physicist, historian, jurist, diplomat, inventor, and mathematician. (more…)

    Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part Five:
    The Age of the World Picture 

    Hieronymus Bosch, Outer Wings of the Garden of Delights, ca. 1510.

    4,305 words

    1. Introduction: From Objectivism to Subjectivism

    In the previous two installments (Part Three here, Part Four here) we have discussed at length Heidegger’s treatment of the “objectification of beings” in early modernity: how beings come to be seen as “objects” related to a “subject” that confronts them (indirectly) from within an interior space that is called “mind,” “awareness,” or even “self.” This objectification is essentially identical with the representationalist theory of knowledge, which holds that we are only indirectly aware of the “external world,” via internal images which “represent” external objects. So far, however, this may not be the account of modernity that my readers were expecting. (more…)

    Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part Four:
    The Cartesian Destruction of Being

    Frans Hals, Portrait of René Descartes, 1649-1700.

    6,518 words

    1. To Be Is to Be “Set Before”

    In the previous installment of this series, we saw Heidegger contrasting modernity to the Middle Ages in the following terms:

    For the Middle Ages . . . the being is the ens creatum, that which is created by the personal creator-God, who is considered to be the highest cause. (more…)

    Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part Two:
    Late Antiquity & the Middle Ages

    6,166 words

    Introduction

    In the previous essay (“Heidegger’s History of Metaphysics, Part One: Platonism”) I began to sketch Heidegger’s argument for the claim that Western metaphysics lays the groundwork for the nihilism and decadence of modernity. I framed this account partly as a critique of the Traditionalists Julius Evola and René Guénon, who aimed to combat modernity with a “Traditionalism” grounded in Western metaphysics (more…)

    Remembering Mr. Gurdjieff
    (January 13, 1866/1872/1877–October 24, 1949)

    Mr. Gurdjieff

    7,589 words

    George Ivanovich Gurdjieff was born on this day in 1866, 1872, or 1877 — depending on whom you ask. [1] Much else about his biography is equally uncertain. We do know that his father was Greek, his mother Armenian, and that he was born in Alexandropol which was then part of the Russian Empire (it is now in Armenia and is called Gyumri). (more…)
