Book Description
In Heidegger’s Way of Being, the follow-up to his 2010 book, Engaging Heidegger, Richard Capobianco makes the case clearly and compellingly that the core matter of Heidegger’s lifetime of thought was Being as the temporal emergence of all beings and things. Drawing upon a wide variety of texts, many of which have been previously untranslated, Capobianco illuminates the overarching importance of Being as radiant manifestation – “the truth of Being” – and how Heidegger also named and elucidated this fundamental phenomenon as physis (Nature), Aletheia, the primordial Logos, and as Ereignis, Lichtung, and Es gibt.
Heidegger’s Way of Being brings back into full view the originality and distinctiveness of Heidegger’s thought and offers an emphatic rejoinder to certain more recent readings, and particularly those that propose a reduction of Being to “sense” or “meaning” and maintain that the core matter is human meaning-making. Capobianco’s vivid and often poetic reflections serve to evoke for readers the very experience of Being – or as he prefers to name it, the Being-way – and to invite us to pause and meditate on the manner of our human way in relation to the Being-way.
Review
"This book presents an eloquent and compelling case that Heidegger's life-long philosophical task, from his earliest texts to his last, was the elucidation and articulation of Being as manifestation....Capobianco presents an almost irrefutable case that Heidegger's focus always remained Being's manifestation."--S. Montgomery Ewegen, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
"A thoughtful, perceptive, and substantial response to some one-sided tendencies in explorations and interpretations of Heidegger's philosophy, this book reclaims and re-vindicates the primordial task of Heidegger's thinking."--George Kovacs, Florida International University
"Heidegger's Way of Being clearly and calmly focuses on the point that Being is The Subject for Heidegger. Capobianco has a clear mastery of Heidegger's texts, and explicates them in a way that demonstrates Heidegger's own clarity on the topic." Robert Mugerauer, University of Washington
