Summary

"Interrogating the Tradition interprets figures in the history of Western thought from a broad, "continental" perspective. Divided into three major sections - hermeneutical thought, Heidegger and the Greeks, and the question of nature in German Idealism - the question of origins is central throughout and takes various shapes, all within the context of the history of Western philosophy.
Addressed are the form inquiries take into manners by which we receive our philosophical tradition, the originary force of Plato and Aristotle in the formation of philosophical interpretations of time and human life, and inceptional concepts of nature in the nineteenth century."--BOOK JACKET.
