Heidegger's Being and Time: Critical Essays provides a variety of recent studies of Heidegger's most important work. Twelve prominent scholars, representing diverse nationalities, generations, and interpretive approaches deal with general methodological and ontological questions, particular issues in Heidegger's text, and the relation between Being and Time and Heidegger's later thought. All of the essays presented in this volume were never before available in an English-language anthology. Two of the essays have never before been published in any language (Dreyfus and Guignon); three of the essays have never been published in English before (Grondin, Kisiel, and ThomS), and two of the essays provide previews of works in progress by major scholars (Dreyfus and Kisiel).

Steven Crowell has been for many years a leading voice in debates on twentieth-century European philosophy. This volume presents thirteen recent essays that together provide a systematic account of the relation between meaningful experience (intentionality) and responsiveness to norms. They argue for a new understanding of the philosophical importance of phenomenology, taking the work of Husserl and Heidegger as exemplary, and introducing a conception of phenomenology broad enough to encompass the practices of both philosophers. Crowell discusses Husserl's analyses of first-person authority, the semantics of conscious experience, the structure of perceptual content, and the embodied subject, and shows how Heidegger's interpretation of the self addresses problems in Husserl's approach to the normative structure of meaning. His volume will be valuable for upper-level students and scholars interested in phenomenological approaches to philosophical questions in both the European and the analytic traditions.

"The New Yearbook for Phenomenology and Phenomenological Philosophy Volume VI" includes important contributions by both established and emerging scholars working in the phenomenological tradition, together with first-time English translations of texts and documents whose phenomenological relevance transcends their considerable historical significance. Contributors include Parvis Emad, John Sallis, Carlo Ierna, Filip Mattens, Dieter Lohmar, Benjamin D. Crowe, Patrick Burke, Jacob Klein, Ka-wing Leung, Heribert Boeder, Joshua Kates, Paul Davies, Jay Lampert, James Carey, Jan Potocka, and Jorn Muller.

Each Yearbook provides an annual international forum for phenomenology and phenomenological philosophy in the spirit of Edmund Husserl's groundbreaking work. Included are articles on contemporary issues and controversies, critical studies of phenomenological figures, investigations on the relationships to the natural and human sciences, historical studies on phenomenology and phenomenological philosophy, as well as translations of classical and contemporary phenomenological texts.
The aim is to renew the original spirit and intention of Edmund Husserl's "Jahrbuch fur Philosophie und phanomenolische Forschung," which he expressed in the 1913 preface to the inaugural volume, "This journal is intended . . . to unite those in shared work who hope for a fundamental reform of philosophy by means of the pure and rigorous execution of phenomenological method."

The thirteen essays in this volume represent the most sustained investigation, in any language, of the connections between Heidegger's thought and the tradition of transcendental philosophy inaugurated by Kant. This collection examines Heidegger's stand on central themes of transcendental philosophy: subjectivity, judgment, intentionality, truth, practice, and idealism. Several essays in the volume also explore hitherto hidden connections between Heidegger's later post-metaphysical thinking - where he develops a topological approach that draws as much upon poetry as upon the philosophical tradition - and the transcendental project of grasping the conditions that make experience of a meaningful world possible. This volume will interest philosophers in the continental tradition, where Heidegger's thought has long had a central role, as well as those many philosophers in the analytic tradition whose own approach to knowledge, semantics, and philosophy of mind traces its roots to Kant.

Existentialism exerts a continuing fascination on students of philosophy and general readers. As a philosophical phenomenon, though, it is often poorly understood, as a form of radical subjectivism that turns its back on reason and argumentation and possesses all the liabilities of philosophical idealism but without any idealistic conceptual clarity. In this volume of original essays, the first to be devoted exclusively to existentialism in over forty years, a team of distinguished commentators discuss the ideas of Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty and Beauvoir and show how their focus on existence provides a compelling perspective on contemporary issues in moral psychology and philosophy of mind, language and history. A further sequence of chapters examines the influence of existential ideas beyond philosophy, in literature, religion, politics and psychiatry. The volume offers a rich and comprehensive assessment of the continuing vitality of existentialism as a philosophical movement and a cultural phenomenon.

Stephen and Lee explore how Yahweh, the God of the Israelites, works with the natural order and the natural events in life to attain supernatural results. One could easily read the book of Judges and be misled on how the various characters completed their God given missions. Judge Deborah and Commander Barak may have put together a tremendous strategy that allowed them to overcome Sisera and the battle-hardened soldiers, but instead God is victorious though a storm full of fury and ground shaking effects. Gideon and Sampson see God moving in their lives in mysterious ways as well. Three Judges on one hand is extremely informative by looking at the historical setting and little known details, but Stephen and Lee have also woven three interesting stories from different perspectives. A farmer standing out in his field watches the battle between Israel and the Canaanites. Gideon's father tells the story as only a proud daddy can do, while Samspon's mother tells a sad tale. If you are a student of history, or just looking for deeper insight on how our God works in our lives, this is a book for you.
