Description
"Telling Time takes up Heidegger's idea of a "phenomenological chronology" in an attempt to pose the question of the possibility of a phenomenological language that would be given over to the "temporary of being" and the finitude of existence. The book combines a discussion of approaches to language in the philosophical tradition with readings of Husserl on temporality and the early and late texts of Heidegger's on logic, truth and the nature of language. As well as Heidegger's "deconstruction" of logic and metaphysics Daster's work is also informed by Derrida's deconstruction of the metaphysics of presence and Nietzchean genealogy. Appealing as much to Humboldt's philosophy of language as to Holderlin's poetic thought, the book illuminates the eminently dialectical structure of speech and its essential connection with mortality."--BOOK JACKET.
