Heidegger’s Ontological Project: On Being and Time

This long-awaited volume of The Collected Writings of John Sallis presents his lectures on Martin Heidegger’s monumental Being and Time.

The lectures were presented during the 1985-86 academic year at Loyola University of Chicago and during the fall semester of 1999 at Pennsylvania State University. The fourteen years separating the beginning of the two courses is significant in that numerous additional volumes appeared in the Gesamtausgabe and influenced Sallis’s interpretation of Being and Time.

This book is a synthesis of the manuscripts of the two separate lecture courses. This volume makes Being and Time accessible to students, while the most advanced scholars will also profit from it.

John Sallis is Frederick J. Adelmann Professor of Philosophy at Boston College. He is author of more than twenty books, including Chorology, Songs of Nature, and Kant and the Spirit of Critique. Jeffrey Powell is professor of Philosophy at Marshall University. He is the editor of Heidegger and Language and coeditor of Aesthetic Reason and Imaginative Freedom: Friedrich Schiller and Philosophy. He is cotranslator of Heidegger’s The History of Beyng.
