Cassirer and Heidegger in Davos: a conversation with Simon Truwant

Описание: Dr. David Peña-Guzmán interviews Simon Truwant, Professor of Philosophy at KU Leuven. They discuss his book, Cassirer and Heidegger in Davos (Cambridge UP, 2022). What happened during and before this (in)famous public meeting between two German philosophers, Ernst Cassirer and Martin Heidegger? How have Cassirer's neo-Kantianism and Heidegger's existential phenomenology come to represent the split between analytic and continental philosophy? Finally, how do their two philosophies give divergent answers to similar questions, and how might we think them together on topics such as the task of philosophy and the human condition?
