Phenomena at the Margins- Graduate Conference and Workshop in Phenomenology\,
University of Sussex\, 19th - 21st June 2014

Workshop Programme: 'Heidegger on Enframing and Releasement'

Thursday\, June 19th\, Room Arts A 108

This workshop seeks to bring together a series of talks by both well
established and up and coming Heidegger scholars on two key themes in the
later thought of Martin Heidegger. The terms Gelassenheit\, often translated
as &lsquo\;releasement&rsquo\;\, and Gestell\, translated as &lsquo\;enframing&rsquo\; or &lsquo\;standing
reserve&rsquo\;\, serve as two central and opposing concepts. With the recent
translations into English of the two key volumes of Heidegger&rsquo\;s collected
works\, the Country Path Conversations (2010) and the Bremen and Freiburg
Lectures (2012)\, these critical terms in Heidegger&rsquo\;s philosophy are finally
able to be approached in their original contexts. The workshop focuses
centrally on important Heideggerian critiques of science\, technology\, modern
industrialized society\, as well as his thoughts on the comportment
(Gelassenheit) which is able to resist the restrictive domain of modern
techno-scientific thought (Gestell). Also included are Heidegger&rsquo\;s early
reflections on the status of &ldquo\;things&rdquo\;\, the errancy of metaphysics\, art and
language\, and proper thinking.

Together\, these two texts and their attendant concepts are the central
points of entry into Martin Heidegger&rsquo\;s later thinking and this workshop
seeks to bring together into dialogue this rich philosophical material.
