Description

The Heidegger Concordance represents the first index of Martin Heidegger's Collected Works [Gesamtausgabe]. This three-volume work offers a comprehensive list of the most relevant concepts in Heidegger's writings and their corresponding occurrences in all 81 published volumes of the Gesamtausgabe. As an essential reference tool for anyone working in Heidegger Studies today, the Concordance will help students and scholars navigate their way through the almost 30,000 pages of Heidegger's published writings. Volumes 1 and 2 present an introduction, chronology of the Gesamtausgabe and complete index of German terms. Volume 3 offers indices of Greek and Latin terms and proper names. The Heidegger Concordance includes more than 7000 entries. It constitutes a hugely important research tool and one of the most significant contributions to Heidegger Studies in recent years.

Reviews

Given the immensity and philosophical importance of Heideggers Gesamtausgabe, which now comprises more than 80 volumes, this long overdue and user-friendly Concordance will rapidly become an indispensable tool of Heidegger scholarship. -- Jean Grondin, Professor of Philosophy, Universit de Montral, Canada
The Heidegger Concordance fills a long-felt lacuna among Heidegger scholars of a comprehensive index that allows them to track the emergence, development, interrelationships, and at times decline of his many key concepts and so provides them with a holistic insight into the ways and changes of his thinking. -- Theodore Kisiel, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, Northern Illinois University, USA
The Heidegger Concordance is a unique, essential, and extraordinary tool that gives scholars all they ever wanted: some form of index! It provides an extensive and precise navigation system that allows researchers to focus on about any specific topic. Above all, this concordance brings peace of mind to those researchers who tended to lose sleep, wondering what they might have forgotten in their reading of Heidegger or neglected to write down. -- Pol Vandevelde, Professor of Philosophy, Marquette University, USA
