Throughout his life, Martin Heidegger commented on his own thinking. Reading and interpreting one’s own writings were part of his working style, of the entirely self-critical orientation of the journey in the landscape of thought.
On My Own Publications (volume 82 of Heidegger’s Complete Works) is the first English-language translation of the philosopher’s notes and personal thoughts on works he published throughout his life.
Focusing on his fundamental works, Being and Time (1927), What is Metaphysics? (1929), and The Origin of the Work of Art (1935/36), On My Own Publications offers a rare look inside the mind of an influential thinker.
