Greatest Philosophers in History | Martin Heidegger

Martin Heidegger is known as one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century. He is best known for his work in existentialism and phenomenology.   
His early work as a phenomenologist and university professor culminated in his masterpiece and one of the most significant works of contemporary European philosophy: Being and Time.  The fundamental concept of Being and Time is the idea of Dasein, which simply means existence, it is the experience of the human being.   
This episode explores many of his key terms for an introduction to Heidegger’s thought. Most importantly: Being-in-the-world, ready to hand and present-at hand, facticity, thrownness, existentiality, fallenness, Das Man, temporality, being-toward-death and the fourfold.   
The later Heidegger reorients his philosophical concerns towards poetry, language, and technology.
