Heidegger and Aquinas

An Essay on Overcoming Metaphysics

About this book

Available in a new digital edition with reflowable text suitable for e-readers

The purpose of the present study is to undertake a confrontation of the thought of Martin Heidegger and Thomas Aquinas on the question of Being and the problem of metaphysics. Now, a 'confrontation' which does no more than draw up a catalogue of common traits and points of difference is no more than a curiosity, an idle comparison which bears no fruit.
