Pippin's The Culmination , ‘logic as metaphysics’, and the unintelligibility of Dasein
Robert Pippin's new book, The Culmination , examines Heidegger's reading and critique of Kant and Hegel. Since Pippin is perhaps best known as one of the most influential contemporary advocates for the importance of engaging with the difficult work of Hegel in particular, it will no doubt surprise quite a few of his readers that, on some fundamental points, the book concludes that “Heidegger is right” (p. xi). In the present piece, I explore some…
Being‐Towards‐Death and Owning One's Judgment
1 sets out some of the principal puzzling features of Heidegger's discussion of Being-towards-death; Sec. 2 presents my reading of Heidegger's discussion of St Paul; and 1 In addition to Edwards' well-known criticisms (see his 1979 and 1989), Philipse claims that 'Heidegger's allegedly deep analysis of death does not contain significant philosophical insights', and is merely 'a mesmerizing play with words' (1998: 354). 2 Cf., e.g.McGrath 2006: 19…
Heidegger, Authenticity, and the Self
The Enchantment of Words
This book is a study of Wittgenstein’s early masterpiece, the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. It argues that Wittgenstein’s aim in that deeply puzzling work is to show that the ‘intelligibility of thought’ and the ‘meaningfulness of language’, which logical truths would delimit, and metaphysics and the philosophy of mind and language would explain are issues constituted by confusions. What is exposed is a mirage of a kind of self-consciousness, a…
Enchantment of Words
Wittgenstein and Scepticism
Freedom, Grammar and the Given— Mind and World and Wittgenstein
Etude du rapport problematique a Wittgenstein soutenu par J. McDowell dans son ouvrage intitule «Mind and world». Sous la question du donne non conceptualise, de l'autonomie de la grammaire et de la revisabilite des concepts chez Wittgenstein et McDowell, l'A. montre que l'ouvrage «Mind and world» porte les traces d'un rationalisme inacceptable, fonde sur une conception du sujet comme etranger (other-wordly) et sur une definition conceptualiste d…
Error, Hallucination and the Concept of ‘Ontology’ in the Early Work of Heidegger
Recently the attempt has been made to demonstrate Heidegger's relevance to the concerns of analytic philosophers. A focus for this effort has been the criticism in his early work of Cartesian ontology. While a number of important works have mapped out this area of Heidegger's thought, a crucial task has not been carried out, namely that of assessing how Heidegger can accommodate those phenomena which motivate the Cartesian to adopt his highly cou…
Individual differences in cognitive processes
A study is reported that examined the relationship between a measure of schizophrenic‐like characteristics (schizotypy) in normal subjects and cognitive inhibition. Both repetitive and semantic measures of priming were used. It was found that low schizotypes showed negative priming (i.e. longer reaction times to the re‐presentation of initially ignored stimuli) while high schizotypes did not; high schizotypes exhibited semantic facilitation (i.e.…
