"Heidegger's Objection to Husserl's Phenomenological Reduction"
This is a reconstruction of Heidegger's objections to Husserl's phenomenological method, which he offered in his 1925 lectures, History of the Concept of Time. I also assess the downstream consequences of Heidegger's arguments.
"Phenomenology as a Transcendental Temporal Grammar"
In this paper I propose a way of looking at Heidegger's phenomenology as something like Kant's transcendental logic: a formal ontology built on a grammatical theory of the space of meaning and fleshed out through an analysis of the temporal contours of human experience. This connects Being and Time with Heidegger's Habilitationsschrift, which focused on the medieval text, Grammatica Speculativa as well as with Husserl's construction of a formal ontology in Logical Investigations.
"Heidegger, Kant, and the Essence of Human Freedom"
This is an examination of Heidegger's interpretation and appropriation of Kant's conception of freedom in his 1930 lectures, On the Essence of Human Freedom: Introduction to Philosophy.
"Resoluteness and Tradition in Being and Time"
My plan here is to develop an interpretation of the apparently conflicting themes of resoluteness and historicality in Being and Time. Resoluteness, at least as I read it, requires an openness, and when appropriate, commitment, to normative change, whereas historicality often appears to have traditionalist implications. This piece is very much "under construction."
