Biography
Emily Hughes is a postdoctoral research associate in philosophy at the University of York working on the AHRC-funded project "Grief: A Study of Human Emotional Experience." Situated at the intersection of existential phenomenology and the philosophy of psychiatry and psychology, Emily has published widely on affective and temporal experience.
Marilyn Stendera is lecturer in philosophy at the University of Wollongong, Australia. She has previously held positions at Deakin University, Monash University, and the University of Melbourne, where she also completed her PhD (on intersections between Heidegger's account of temporality and contemporary debates in cognitive science). She also has degrees in German and Social Theory and is particularly interested in time, especially its role in cognition and its relationship to power.
“In Heidegger’s Alternative History of Time, Emily Hughes and Marilyn Stendera offer a rich and penetrating account of Heidegger’s destruction of the history of metaphysics and how the forgetting of question of time has resulted in the subsequent forgetting of the question of the meaning of being … The prose stands out as consistently crisp and clear and the historical survey of major figures is thematically coherent and well-organized … It is essential reading, providing an authoritative account of Heidegger’s philosophy of time.”
Kevin Aho, Phenomenology and the Cognitive Sciences
