{"product_id":"the-origin-of-time-heath-massey-9781438455310","title":"The Origin of Time: Heidegger and Bergson","description":"The recent renewal of interest in the philosophy of Henri Bergson has increased both recognition of his influence on twentieth-century philosophy and attention to his relationship to phenomenology. Until now, the question of Martin Heidegger's debt to Bergson has remained largely unanswered. Heidegger's brief discussion of Bergson in \u003ci\u003eBeing and Time\u003c\/i\u003e is geared toward explaining why he fails in his attempts to think more radically about time. Despite this dismissal, a close look at Heidegger's early works dealing with temporality reveals a sustained engagement with Bergson's thought. In \u003ci\u003eThe Origin of Time\u003c\/i\u003e, Heath Massey evaluates Heidegger's critique of Bergson and examines how Bergson's efforts to rethink time in terms of duration anticipate Heidegger's own interpretation of temporality. Massey demonstrates how Heidegger follows Bergson in seeking to uncover \"primordial time\" by disentangling temporality from spatiality, how he associates Bergson with the tradition of philosophy that covers up this phenomenon, and how he overlooks Bergson's ontological turn in \u003ci\u003eMatter and Memory\u003c\/i\u003e. Through close readings of early major works by both thinkers, Massey argues that Bergson is a much more radical thinker with respect to time than Heidegger allows.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heath Massey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1438455313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781438455310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e State University of New York Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 299\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.40w x 1.10d","brand":"Heath Massey","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44201883664639,"sku":"9781438455310","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b10ee4dd-5ab2-429a-a005-90be03919ca2.jpg?v=1691491987","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-origin-of-time-heath-massey-9781438455310","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
