Features: Heidegger is hailed as one of the most profound and influential thinkers of the 20th century, even as one of the two greatest giants of Western philosophy in the 20th century. This book takes the overall development of Heidegger's thought as its soul and explores the various important aspects of his philosophical anthropology, with the theme of human survival's choices and constraints as its main line. It examines key elements of Heidegger's thought, including his theory of Dasein's survival, the theory of the truth and untruth of human existence, the relationship between his early and later thought, the theory that humans and existence together belong to the Great, the thinking of history, the thinking of heaven, earth, humans, and gods, the thinking of language, and the thinking of thought. It also aims to reveal the temporal characteristics, substantive significance, and internal logic of Heidegger's theoretical development, and to elaborate on his position in the history of Western philosophy and his significance for Chinese philosophical anthropology research.
