Comparative and Continental Philosophy (forthcoming)

Abstract

The essay reads Hans Ruin’s Being with the Dead (2019), focusing on four issues: 1. Heidegger’s remarkable indecision (at Sein und Zeit 238) concerning the being of the dead person, which or who is no longer Dasein but not yet a thing; 2. Derrida’s startling reflections—or phantasms—concerning his eventual “remains,” his corpse, and its inhumation or cremation; 3. Heidegger’s interpretation of mana (in what others deride as “primitive” cultures) as an ontological phenomenon, a mode of being; and 4. two variant readings of Antigone, which see her as growing ever younger in the course of the tragedy, which is the story of her uninhibited death drive.
