Inner Circle Seminar No. 254
Sunday 1 December 2019
10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Martin Heidegger at his hut

Richard Rojcewicz

Those who were fortunate enough to participate in Inner Circle Seminar No. 206 on 19 October 2014 recall the sensitivity with which Professor Richard Rojcewicz guided them through Martin Heidegger’s fundamental essay ‘Die Frage nach der Technik’ [‘The Question Concerning Technology’] (1954), drawing on his revelatory translation and on his book The Gods and Technology: A Reading of Heidegger (2006), a high point in the secondary literature. He has translated many of Heidegger’s works including Nos. 2-15 of the Black Notebooks, as well as works of Husserl and Merleau-Ponty.

In today’s Inner Circle Seminar No. 254, Professor Rojcewicz will be happy to answer questions on Heidegger’s Black Notebooks, and in particular on their alleged ‘antisemitism’. He will also, in dialogue with Anthony Stadlen and the other seminar participants, explore a number of enigmatic topics arising from Heidegger’s enormous oeuvre. Such topics will include: anxiety and its relation to the structure of world and to conscience (drawing on a case in Merleau-Ponty); the mysterious ‘voice of the friend that Dasein carries with it’ in Being and Time; ontology and ethics; the relation between Being, beings, God, and the gods in Heidegger’s early and late thinking. We shall try also to relate these topics to the practice of psychotherapy. You may wish to add topics; there may not be time for all our topics; but your contribution will be warmly welcomed.

The Inner Circle Seminars were founded by Anthony Stadlen in 1996 as an ethical, existential, phenomenological search for truth in psychotherapy. They have been kindly described by Thomas Szasz as ‘Institute for Advanced Studies in the Moral Foundations of Human Decency and Helpfulness’. But they are independent of all institutes, schools and universities.
