Indhold: Martin Heidegger’s Sein und Zeit (1927) is a classic work in phenomenology, and one of the most influential and important contributions to philosophy in the twentieth century. In it, Heidegger attempts to reorient philosophy towards a question he calls “the question concerning the meaning of Being”, and along the way he offers fascinating analyses of, among other things, tool use, the world, and social life. The book was a profound influence on continental thinkers such as Arendt, Merleau-Ponty, Levinas and Derrida, and has been a source of inspiration to analytic philosophers such as Rorty and Brandom. Filtered through the work of Hubert Dreyfus, John Haugeland, Michael Wheeler, and others, Heidegger’s ideas have recently even had an impact on research in cognitive science and artificial intelligence.

This course provides a thorough introduction to key aspects of Heidegger’s thought. The course is a module in the master specialization Phenomenology and Philosophy of Mind, but students not enrolled in that specialization are also very welcome.
