Meaning, Excess, and Event
Gatherings: The Heidegger Circle Annual 1:26-53 (2011)
Abstract
This paper agrees with Thomas Sheehan that Heidegger inquires into the source of meaning in finite human existence. The paper argues, however, that Sheehan’s paradigm for interpreting Heidegger should be expanded: Heidegger is also concerned with “excess” and “event”. Excess and event are crucial to being and history, as Heidegger understands them.Author's Profile
