Eight Videos on Martin Heidegger's Being and Time

Earlier this month, I finished up a series of eight short core concept videos covering main ideas, distinctions, and developments in Martin Heidegger's early master-work, Being and Time.  That is a work I have long intended to get to - and people have been requesting me to tackle it for quite a while, not least since I have produced videos on other works by Heidegger (here's a playlist with 30+ videos)

Hopefully these will provide some helpful commentary for people struggling to make sense of that work.  For the time being (pun intended!), I have stuck with just the Introduction - the first 8 sections - of Being and Time.  But later on, I do have plans to create more of these core concept videos on other portions of that massive work. 

As a side-note, there has been some speculation about whether I will give Being and Time the same close reading treatment that I have been providing G.W.F. Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit.  It's a possibility, but first I have to finish off Hegel's work, before considering what "big book" I'll tackle next.

In any case, here are the eight new videos:

• The Question of the Meaning of Being
• The Ontic and the Ontological
• The Existential Analysis of Dasein
• Interpretations of Dasein and Temporality
• Dasein, Historicity, and Tradition
• The Concept of Phenomenon
• The Concept of Logos
• The Concept of Phenomenology
