By B. Magnus

Martin Heidegger's reputation and effect are established, for the main half, on his first paintings, Being and Time. That this was once to were the 1st half a bigger two-volume undertaking, the second one half which used to be by no means accomplished, is widely known. That Heidegger's next writings were non-stop advancements of that undertaking, in a few experience, is mostly stated, even supposing there's huge confrontation about the demeanour during which his later works stand concerning Being and Time. Heidegger students are deeply divided over that query. a few hold that there's a sharp thematic cleavage in Heidegger's concept, in order that the later works both refute or, at most sensible, abandon the sooner issues. Others continue that even to talk of a shift or a "reversal" in Heidegger's pondering is flawed and argue, in conse­ quence, that his pondering develops completely constantly. finally, there are those that admit a shift in emphasis and issues in his works yet introduce a precept of complementarity - the shift is related to repre­ despatched a logical improvement of his thi.nking. Too frequently the teams re­ semble armed camps.

Example text

But the double disrupts this desire. Coming before philosophy and exceeding philosophy’s desire to domesticate it, the double is not confined to dualisms or hierarchized binary oppositions but in its wilder manifestations appears in the form of obscure twinnings and hauntings, uncanny ingeminations, strange, often shady substitutions, oneiric images, and elliptical couplings and conjunctions that tend to render the conceptual apparatuses introduced and offered by tradition inadequate and frequently frustrating if not ultimately futile.

And why 38 B. SEITZ does Plato introduce them and then glide right over them, as if he were pretending to take them for granted? —since they would not be able to handle and manipulate things were they in constraints, nor would they be able to stoke the fires (who carries the firewood? is a question an aristocrat in a slave economy might have forgotten to ask). ). Two kinds of people? People or not (politician’s tools, whomever), the shadowmasters are a force, and this second force is necessary in order to make the shadow world possible—in order to introduce some light into pitch black—and while Plato must relegate the shadowmasters to the shade, they themselves are not shadows, nor are they in the shadows that they make dance on the wall.

Its shape-shifting ubiquity and persistent intrusion suggest both its necessity and the way in which it fuels, exceeds, and eludes philosophy itself. Philosophy finds power and security in the double but from it simultaneously inherits countless forms of dependence, instability, and insecurity. *** I will introduce the problem of the double in philosophy first by addressing some twentieth-century philosophy and then by focusing primarily on patterns exhibited in selective passages of texts by two archetypal luminaries, Plato and Kant.
