Heidegger's Late Marburg Project

By Pavel Reichl

A novel interpretation of Heidegger's project in the

late twenties and of its breakdown and transformation around the turn of the

decade. I argue that Heidegger develops a unified project in the late Marburg

period that is constructed around the question of the unity of the concept of

being in light of its regional multiplicity. Furthermore, I argue that Heidegger's

conception of the framework of this project is highly influenced by his reception

of Kant in this same period. Specifically, I identify the elements of the Kantian

framework that Heidegger retains and appropriates for his project, as well as

those elements that he rejects. In the former case, Heidegger takes up primarily

Kant's framework of a priori transcendental conditions that are to make

empirical experience possible, which Heidegger reformulates in terms of the preunderstanding

of being that makes possible the apprehension of entities. In the

latter case, I isolate two primary criticisms that will serve as desiderata for the

execution of Heidegger's project, namely: that the categories have an excessively

subjectivistic status, and that they are based solely on logical functions of

judgement. The former constitutes a problem because the location of the

categories on the subject side makes difficult their applicability to the objective

realm, and lead Heidegger to reject both the quid juris form of posing the

question as well as the results of the transcendental deduction in general.
