FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Michael Allen Gillespie is professor of political science and philosophy at Duke University. Review "A fine and thoughtful study which is as intelligent as its subject demands and as lucid as it permits."-- "Times Higher Education""This is a marvelously learned and persistently thoughtful study. Gillespies presentation of Heideggers critique of modernity is a model of philosophical commentary, and should be required reading for all those interested in appreciating the implications for political philosophy of Heideggers thought as a whole."-- "Queens Quarterly""This thoughtful and stimulating work boldly takes on the task of assessing the thought of both Hegel and Heidegger. Gillespie seeks to explain how these two philosophers have tried to understand what history means when taken as a whole, and what significance history has for illuminating our essential characteristics, goals, and limits. . . . Gillespies book provides both a comprehensive overview of the political and philosophical orientation of Hegel and Heidegger and then also a more specific treatment of their attempt to fathom whether there is a ground of history, whether it is based in something intelligible and coherent. Gillespies account of the general outlines of the thought of Hegel and Heidegger is a marvel of clarity."-- "American Political Science Review" Review Quote "This thoughtful and stimulating work boldly takes on the task of assessing the thought of both Hegel and Heidegger.
