CFP: The Aftermath of Being and Time (1927-1932)/ Die Nachwirkungen von Sein und Zeit (1927-1932)

Upon the appearance of Being and Time in 1927, Martin Heidegger found himself suddenly transformed from a provincial university lecturer – whispered about as "the hidden king of philosophy" – to an internationally recognised figurehead of a new kind of thinking.
From then, until he publically aligned himself with National Socialism in 1933, Heidegger's thinking underwent major development.

ECHS invites abstracts for papers which seek to illuminate important aspects of Heidegger's thinking between those two points in time.

Possible topics include but are not limited to:

– Discussion of the so-called "Kant Buch" (Kant and the Problem of Metaphysics)

– The 1929 lecture series The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics: World - Finitude - Solitude

– The Beginning of Western Philosophy (GA 35)

Each presentation of a paper should be between 30-45 minutes, and the time allotted to each is 60 minutes. Please submit a title, short summary, and short biographical information before 1st May, 2026.
