Finding Auntie Ethel at the Riverside Teahouse With his interpretative reading of the Eighth Elegy, Heidegger takes an active part in the debate concerning the relationship between organism and environment (internal-external, subject-object), examining those fundamental primary characteristics that unequivocally distinguish and differentiate the environment from the world, the animal from man. At the end of the course held in the winter semester of 1942/43, Heidegger approached the eighth of Rilke's Duino Elegies, giving rise to a stimulating confrontation that revolved around the notion of the «Open» - an approach that the philosopher would take up again a few years later, in 1946, on the occasion of the conference Wozu Dichter? for the twentieth anniversary of the poet's death on 29 December 1926. Indeed, Rousseau thinks our species is distinguished from all other animals not by our rationality or compassion, both of which animals also possess to a degree, but by our possessing free will.

Human beings are free beings, not just in the superficial political sense of desiring not to be dominated by tyrants, but also in the deep metaphysical sense of living as the will in each of us leads. “Man was born free, and he is everywhere in chains.” Thus begins Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s classic political treatise, The Social Contract, the aim of which is to offer a solution to the puzzle so memorably stated in its opening line. The topic of his dissertation is the epistemological roots of conservatism. He is mainly interested in political philosophy. candidate in philosophy at the University of Oklahoma. |
