First published in German in 2001, these two lecture courses offer a sustained encounter with Heidegger&#8217;s thinking during a period when he attempted to give expression to his highest ambitions for a philosophy engaged with politics and the world. While the lectures are strongly nationalistic and celebrate the revolutionary spirit of the time, they also attack theories of racial supremacy in an attempt to stake out a distinctively Heideggerian understanding of what it means to be a people. This careful translation offers valuable insight into Heidegger&#8217;s views on language, truth, animality, and life, as well as his political thought and activity.<\/p>\n<p>Studies in Continental Thought<br \/>\n256 pp., 5 b&amp;w illus. cloth <a class=\"libx-autolink\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px dotted;\" title=\"libx-autolink\" href=\"http:\/\/cat.libraries.psu.edu\/uhtbin\/cgisirsi\/x\/0\/0\/5\/?searchdata1=9780253355119\">978-0-253-35511-9<\/a> $39.95<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.iupress.indiana.edu\/catalog\/product_info.php?isbn=978-0-253-35511-9\">http:\/\/www.iupress.indiana.edu\/catalog\/product_info.php?isbn=978-0-253-35511-9<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indiana University Press is pleased to announce the recent publication of: BEING AND TRUTH Martin Heidegger Translated by Gregory Fried and Richard Polt &#8220;Fried and Polt&#8217;s translation of Martin Heidegger&#8217;s Being and Truth is a well-crafted and careful rendering of an important and demanding volume of the Complete Works.&#8221;
