Heidegger's Revelation

The End of Enlightenment

Damon Linker

NA

This article treats the philosopher Martin Heidegger as an opponent of a transhistorical ideal of enlightenment—understood as philosophical reflection—and as an advocate for a counter-enlightenment ideal of revealed truth. The author examines Heidegger’s treatment of this theme in his early masterwork, Being and Time, and in several of his essays of the 1950s. The author concludes that despite the power of Heidegger’s assault on enlightenment, his counter-enlightenment project should be resisted.

Key Words: Heidegger • enlightenment • counter-enlightenment • revelation • philosophy
