Heraclitus: The Inception of Occidental Thinking and Logic: Heraclitus’s Doctrine of the Logos

Aims to present an elucidation of the work of Heraclitus, a pre-Socratic philosopher as the author of "On Nature", the first sustained work of Greek prose. This book comprises two lecture courses delivered by the author at the University of Freiburg during the summers of 1943 and 1944. Heraclitus is the first English translation of Volume 55 of Martin Heidegger’s Gesamtausgabe. This important volume consists of two lecture courses given by Heidegger at the University of Freiburg over the Summers of 1943 and 1944 on the thought of Heraclitus. These lectures shed important light on Heidegger’s understanding of Greek thinking, as well as his understanding of Germany, the history of philosophy, the Western world, and their shared destinies.
