Heidegger and Aristotle; The Folding of Being

Author: Walter Brogan
Translator: Mir Hossein Khairkhah

It is not wrong to say that one of the most important characteristics and achievements of thinkers who are included in the category of existential philosophers has been their attention to the field of human “conditions”; and that in a broader horizon in which conditions such as boredom, anxiety, hope, guilt, etc., beyond the purely psychological aspect, are considered to have ontological and existential implications. Among them, one of the first names that comes to mind is Søren Kierkegaard, the Danish philosopher and theologian. In the book you are holding, we see him busy exploring a state that we have probably all experienced, more or less, in the past or present: despair.
