2018-01-10 at 9:08 PM UTC in Flat Earth retardsStoner culture is only so prevalent because the weed was criminalized. If the US government hadn't forced it into a subculture of teenagers and criminals, we wouldn't have nearly the level of ignorance that we do.

If it is, I wish you good luck. If not, go fish.

Originally posted by F.E. Allen Are you trying to read it cover to cover? Being and Time is one of the most notoriously difficult and poorly translated works in philosophy. Second only to Hegel but a mile ahead of Kant (what the fuck is it with Germans? God damn).
Dreyfus is probably the most famous modern commentator on Heidegger, he can still be plenty dense but it's the only way I've been able to understand the kraut bastard. "A Companion to Heidegger" might be the secondary resource you want if you're writing a thesis but it's a 500 page book on top of whatever ungodly number of pages are in Being and Time.
Have you talked to anyone about this? I mean if that's what you want to do more power to you but you're really taking the hard way on this one.
I'm working with faculty, who are very helpful. It is a monster of a book and I'm approaching his very nuanced language by way of repetition - I'm currently wading in not far beyond the intro more or less solo.
Originally posted by F.E. Allen There's also a series of audio recording of Dreyfus' lectures on Being and Time on youtube:

I'm not usually big on recorded lecturing for whatever reason, maybe it's social, I think Peterson's reputation has been damaged by his status as "youtube lecturer" on top of whatever other issues he might have. But anyway, I found Dreyfus was at about the right level for me to digest.
this kind of interpretive lecture is very encouraging, I'll need to give that a listen tomorrow when I'm clearer.
Originally posted by Captain Falcon It was too opaque for me. I got through Being and Time but didn't know wtf he was talking about. I'm just posting in this thread to say that it's a good idea to make this thread and ask for resources first. It is basically impenetrable if you go into it cold.
If someone has actually good resources, I might join you in reading it.
Let me know if you do, I'd be glad to hear your thoughts on Being and Time.

2018-01-08 at 3:39 AM UTC in HeideggerI'm zeroing in on a thesis topic on Being and Time and I'm trying to immerse myself in his bizarre phenomenological nomenclature. Do any of you niggas have resources suited for this task?

I wasn't power hungry. Perhaps the most glaring problem with my modding was that I was slightly afraid of my authority. You don't know what you're talking about. -
