Heidegger Explained: Being, Time, and the Unthinkable Questions of Existence

Dive into the profound and complex philosophy of Martin Heidegger, one of the most influential—and controversial—thinkers of the 20th century. This video breaks down his monumental work, "Being and Time," and explores his core ideas like Dasein (being-in-the-world), authenticity, and the question of Being itself. We'll navigate his often-difficult concepts to understand how he revolutionized phenomenology and existentialism, and why his work remains crucial today.

We'll also address the challenges of his legacy, including his affiliation with Nazism, and how it forces us to think about the relationship between a philosopher's life and their ideas. This is a guide for anyone looking to understand the roots of modern thought, continental philosophy, and the fundamental questions about what it means to be.
