Duns Scotus's Doctrine of Categories and Meaning is a key text for
the origins of Martin Heidegger's concept of "facticity."
Originally submitted as a postdoctoral thesis in 1915, it focuses
on the 13th-century philosopher-theologian John Duns Scotus.
Heidegger first analyzes Scotus's doctrine of categories, then
offers a meticulous explanation of the Grammatica Speculativa, a
work of medieval grammar now known to be authored by the Modist
grammarian Thomas of Erfurt. Taken together, these investigations
represent an early foray into Heidegger's lifelong philosophical
concerns, "the question of being in the guise of the problem of
categories and the question of language in the guise of the
doctrine of meaning." This new and unique translation of one of
Heidegger's earliest works offers an important look at his early
thinking before the question of being became his central concern
and will appeal to readers exploring Heidegger's philosophical
development, medieval philosophy, phenomenological interpretations
of the history of philosophy, and the philosophy of language.
