REINTERPRETING REASON

HEIDEGGER, MARTIN.

Vom Wesen des Grundes. Sonderdruck aus der Festschrift für Edmund Husserl.

Halle, Niemeyer, 1929. 4to. Uncut in original printed wrappers. Front wrapper loose, spine wit minor lacks. Otherwise nice and clean. (2) pp., pp. 72 [2] - 110 [40]. With card stating "Überreicht vom Verfasser" (presented by the author).

First edition, off-print, of Heidegger's influential work, in which he radically reinterpretates the fundamental philosophical significance of the Leibnitzian principle of reason, and the origin and essence of reason in general. In this early work, Heidegger sets out to derive the principle of reason from the transcendent and temporal structure of Dasein and thereby totally redefines and redetermines the notion.
