In this innovative contribution, Eric S. Nelson offers a
contextualized and systematic exploration of the Chinese sources
and German language interpretations that shaped Heidegger's
engagement with Daoism and his thinking of the thing, nothingness,
and the freedom of releasement (Gelassenheit). Encompassing
forgotten and recently published historical sources, including
Heidegger's Daoist-related reflections in his lectures and
notebooks, Nelson presents a critical intercultural
reinterpretation of Heidegger's philosophical journey. Nelson
analyzes the intersections and differences between the Daodejing,
the Zhuangzi, and Heidegger's philosophy and the linguistic and
conceptual shifts in Heidegger's thinking that correlate with his
encounters and interactions with Daoist, Buddhist, and East Asian
texts and interlocutors. He thereby traces hints for encountering
things and environments anew, models for intercultural
hermeneutics, and ways of reimagining the thing, nothingness, and
freedom with and beyond Heidegger's thought. This work elucidates
the thing, the mystery, and freedom in Heidegger and Daoism in Part
I and Heidegger's thinking of nothingness, emptiness, and the
clearing in relation to Daoist and Buddhist philosophy in Part II.
In each part, Nelson unfolds a fresh perspective for thinking
further with Heidegger and East Asian philosophies in relation to
the contemporary existential and environmental situation for the
sake of nourishing life amidst damaged life.
