520  1   $a"Introduction to Metaphysics includes a
         reinterpretation of Greek thought, a vision of Western
         history, and a glimpse of the reasons behind Heidegger's
         support of the Nazi Party in the 1930s. Heidegger tries to
         reawaken the "question of Being" by challenging some of the
         most enduring prejudices embedded in Western philosophy and
         in our everyday practices and langauge. Furthermore, be
         relates this question to the insights of Greek tragedy into
         the human condition and to the political and cultural crises
         of modernity." "This new translation makes this work more
         accessible than ever before. It combines smoothness with
         accuracy and provides conventional translations of Greek
         passages that Heidegger translated unconventionally. There
         are also extensive notes, a German-English glossary, and an
         introduction that discusses the history of the text, its
         basic themes, and its place in Heidegger's oeuvre."--BOOK
