"Being and Time" (original title: "Sein und Zeit")
"Being and Time" by Martin Heidegger is a philosophical exploration of what it means for humans to exist. Heidegger examines how we experience our own existence, emphasizing that understanding ourselves requires paying attention to our daily choices, concerns, and mortality. He argues that genuine understanding comes from recognizing our finite nature (our mortality) and our active engagement with the world. Overall, the work seeks to uncover the fundamental structures of human existence, encouraging us to live more authentic and aware lives by confronting our being-in-the-world.
