Being and Time – Martin Heidegger

A cornerstone of 20th-century philosophy, Being and Time (1927) reopens the most basic question: what does it mean to exist? Heidegger challenges centuries of metaphysics by turning attention from abstract definitions to the lived reality of human life. Through the concept of Dasein—the being that questions its own being—he explores how we are always already “in-the-world,” shaped by relationships, culture, and time itself. Themes of authenticity, care, temporality, and mortality run throughout, urging readers to confront their finite freedom and take ownership of their choices. Profoundly influential on existentialism, phenomenology, and contemporary thought, this demanding yet transformative work invites us to rethink not only philosophy but the meaning of our own existence.
