Martin Heidegger's Introduction to Metaphysics, first published in
1953, is a highly significant work by a towering figure in
twentieth-century philosophy. The volume is known for its incisive
analysis of the Western understanding of Being, its original
interpretations of Greek philosophy and poetry, and its vehement
political statements. This new companion to the Introduction to
Metaphysics presents an overview of Heidegger's text and a variety
of perspectives on its interpretation from more than a dozen highly
respected contributors.
In the editors' introduction to the book, Richard Polt and
Gregory Fried alert readers to the important themes and problems of
Introduction to Metaphysics. The contributors then offer original
essays on three broad topics: the question of Being, Heidegger and
the Greeks, and politics and ethics. Both for readers who are
approaching Heidegger for the first time and for those who are
studying Heidegger on an advanced level, this Companion offers a
clear guide to one of the philosopher's most difficult yet most
influential writings.
