Heidegger's radical rethinking of the meaning of truth
Thomas Sheehan is Professor of Religious Studies at Stanford University.
"It would be difficult to overstate the scope of the impact of the
English version of Heidegger's Logic. Heidegger carries out nothing
short of a fundamental reinterpretation of the meaning of truth and
the foundations of logic. This is a fine translation that
contributes much to the overall strength of the work." —Theodore
George, Texas A&M University
"Thomas Sheenan has produced a clear and comprehensive critical
edition of Heidegger's Logic that contains a great deal more
material than its German counterpart." —Philosophy in Review
"Thomas Sheehan has here set the standard of excellence against
which all future translations of Heidegger into English must be
measured. At long last, the English-speaking reader is spared the
unnecessary mystification of the word Dasein. Only Existenz is left
untranslated. In his lectures on Holderlin's poem 'Der Ister,' read
in the summer of 1942, Heidegger said to his students: 'Tell me
what you think about translating and I will tell you who you are.'
Professor Sheehan shows us who he is by making accessible the way
of thinking of the Heidegger of Sein und Zeit." —Review of
Metaphysics
