Description:
1. Hölderlin's poetry is absolutely essential for undestanding Heidegger's later thought. McNeill and Ireland's publication in English of Martin Heidegger's *Hölderlin's Hymn "Remembrance"* completes their series of three translations of Heidegger's major lecture courses on Hölderlin.
2. McNeill and Ireland's translation of Heidegger's *Hölderlin's Hymn "Remembrance* includes important new translations of Hölderlin's poems, letters and theoretical writing, and makes an important contribution to Hölderlin studies.
3. Martin Heidegger is considered one of the most important philosophers of the 20th century and publishing Heidegger translations is a core project of our philosophy list; we are second to none in this area. IUP has published nearly 30 translated volumes of his 100 (or more) volume Complete Works.
Review Quotes:
"This faithful and readable translation by William McNeill and Julia Ireland serves as a critical orientation to interpreting Heidegger's later thought, which has become the focus of a great deal of scholarly interest. In Heidegger's own words, Hölderlin's poetry is 'absolutely essential' to understanding his later thought."--Christopher D. Merwin, Emory University
