Martin Heidegger, What Is Metaphysics - The Nothing And Nihilation - Sadler's Lectures

Sadler's Lectures - A podcast by Lectures on classic and contemporary philosophical texts and thinkers by Gregory B. Sadler

Categories:

This lecture discusses the 20th century philosopher, Martin Heidegger, and focuses on his centrally important essay "What Is Metaphysics?" Here we examine Heidegger's exposition of what the Nothing does, i.e. nihilation. (This is a term that translates the German neologism "nichten"). Heidegger views nihilation as more original than negation.
