Contents:

Death in the analysis of Dasein -- Broadening the horizon -- Being, man, and death in the new position -- Death in history, poetry, and language -- Death in the game of being -- Conclusion : Death and Heidegger's way -- Notes -- Bibliography.

Subject: Death, a perennial problem for philosophers and theologians, is especially crucial in the thought of Martin Heidegger. This penetrating commentary presents the concept of death as a unifying motif that illuminates many of the difficulties and obscurities of Heidegger's philosophy. Heidegger comes to see death as revealing the ultimate meaning not only of human existence, but of being itself. He thus confers upon the concept a force and sharpness, an ontological depth which is found in perhaps no other philosopher. This study corroborates the much-debated ""turning"" in Heidegger's philosophy. D.
