1st Edition
Heidegger and Marcuse The Catastrophe and Redemption of History
Biography
Andrew Feenberg is the Canada Research Chair in Philosophy of Technology in the School of Communication at Simon Fraser University.
'This is a book of many virtues. It undertakes the conversation that the later Heidegger was too haughty and the mature Marcuse too disappointed to initiate. In light of this conversation, both Heidegger and Marcuse scholars will be provoked to take a deeper and more fruitful approach to these two giants of twentieth century philosophy. More important still, the book's brilliant readings of Plato, Aristotle, Heidegger, and Marcuse give new resonance to Feenberg's own work and open up new avenues for his extraordinarily circumspect and incisive social philosophy.' – Albert Borgmann, University of Montana, USA
'Feenberg's fine-grained and masterly intellectual historiography will be indispensible in further dicussions of Marcuse.' – Topia
