Martin Heidegger’s reading of Aristotle was one of the pivotal
influences in the development of his philosophy. First published in
German in 1981 as volume 33 of Heidegger's Collected Works, this book
translates a lecture course he presented at the University of Freiburg
in 1931. Heidegger's careful translation and his probing commentary on
the first three chapters of Book IX of Metaphysics show the close
correlation between his phenomenological interpretation of the Greeks
(especially of Aristotle) and his critique of metaphysics. Additionally,
Heidegger's confrontation with Aristotle's Greek text makes a
significant contribution to contemporary scholarship on Aristotle,
particularly the understanding of potentiality in Aristotle's thought.
Finally, the book exemplifies Heidegger's gift for teaching students how
to read a philosophical text and how to question that text in a
philosophical way.
