I’ve been thinking about the Heidegger quote in my sleep it appears, and I can’t help but think it’s wrong or at least wrongly applied here. While I can clearly see ways that it applies to some of the items in the B<\/b> column, I’m not at all sure that I can extend it to everything.<\/p>\n
That means that I’ve spent the last hour digging for Heidegger. I have this shelf of theory books that I frequently think about trying to get rid of for shelf space. I can’t bring myself to dumping them in the usual used books places though because there are some books there that would be very useful to a grad student. As a result, they just sit on my shelf over there, in my way. I pulled all of the anthologies off this morning, but didn’t find any Heidegger essays sadly.<\/p>\n
I checked the technorhet books, and while there are some that may help with this process, the Heidegger essay I need (“The Question Concerning Technology”) was no where. So off to Amazon. $14.00 could get me The Question Concerning Technology, and Other Essays<\/i>. I just hate having to buy a whole book for one 32-page essay. :\\ bleh.<\/p>\n
So back to lazy research, and behold, I found the essay online<\/a>! Okay, I know<\/i> that this is some copyright violation, but I’m using it anyway. I compared it to the pages of the essay that Amazon has available online, and the transcription looks accurate. Also found an online guide<\/a> to the essay which might be useful, but which at present is mostly pissing me off because of the silly, unexplained iconography.<\/p>\n Having not read anything, which is of course the worst time to try to guess what something means, I have this feeling, as I mentioned above, that it’s not an either-or thing. If the Heidegger fits, it fits the columns in a post-structuralist both-and sort of way. I just haven’t quite figured out how yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve been thinking about the Heidegger quote in my sleep it appears, and I can’t help but think it’s wrong or at least wrongly applied here.
