divine temporality

By Nicholas Byle

The publication of Martin Heidegger's Being and Time was a generally agreed upon watershed event in the history of twentieth-century philosophy. As a consequence of its publication, Heidegger, who had been struggling to find a permanent academic position, received immediate fame, even filling Edmund Husserl's position at Freiburg. Of course with the publication of Being and Time, philosophy had to respond. Describing the general reactions to Heidegger in 1929, Heinrich Petzt recounts, "It seemed as if Heidegger dominated the intellectual scene of the university even where he was not actively involved-finding opposition as well as agreement. While some were enthusiastic about him, others resisted and mocked him."1 And Hans-Georg Gadamer, one of Heidegger's most notable students, remarks that "the brilliant scheme of Being and Time really meant a total transformation of the intellectual climate, a transformation that had lasting effects on almost all the sciences."2 It is well-known that Heidegger and his Being and Time had immediate and enduring effects on such notable philosophers as Hannah Arendt, Herbert Marcuse, and Jean-Paul Sartre. Being and Time is now a ranking member of the philosophical canon.
