Martin Heidegger is now widely recognized as one of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth
century. He transformed mainstream philosophy by defining its central task as asking
the'question of being' and he has had a profound impact on fields such as literary theory
theology psychotherapy political theory aesthetics and environmental studies. This new
edition of The Cambridge Companion to Heidegger brings to the fore new works that appear in
Heidegger's collection as well as new approaches to scholarship that have emerged since the
publication of the first edition.
