Bøker av Katherine Withy

What is Heidegger talking about when he says that being conceals itself? This is the first study to systematically address that question. Withy sorts the phenomena of concealing and concealment that Heidegger discusses into a highly structured taxonomy, thereby clarifying Heidegger's notoriously difficult discussions of being as self-concealing.

There are bizarre moments when we feel like strangers to ourselves. Through an investigation of Heidegger's concept of uncanniness, Katherine Withy explores what such experiences reveal. She shows that we can be what we are only if we do not fully understand what it is to be us, and points toward what it is to live well as an uncanny human being.
