Description: A bold new conception of Heidegger's model of Destrucktion as a method of interpreting history that enables us to reorient and indeed transform its own most troubling legacies.
Review Quotes:
"This is an astonishing book. Short but to the point, it profoundly challenges ingrained assumptions about Destruktion in Heidegger's early thought and the role that concept fulfills in fundamental texts of philosophy. Sean D. Kirkland is uniquely qualified to tackle this topic, which is an obvious lacuna in the research on Heidegger, and the insightfulness and originality of this work positions him as one of the preeminent scholars of his generation on the subject." --Dimitris Vardoulakis, author of Spinoza, the Epicurean: Authority and Utility in Materialism
