The Fall 2026 course will be a slow-read of Heidegger’s Winter 1920-21 lectures on the Phenomenology of Religion, which is itself a slow-read of Paul\u2019s Letters to the Galatians and Thessalonians, the oldest texts in the New Testament, and works out the difference between then dominant historicist, theological, and philosophical readings (Troeltsch, Harnack, Dilthey) and his own phenomenological approach, based on Husserl.<\/p>\n

The concurrent public guest-lectures, broadly revolving around “Heidegger and Paul”, will enhance the seminar by providing in-depth analysis of various themes, including other existentialist readings of Paul and the New Testament (Barth, Bultmann), phenomenology (Husserl), contexts of the early Heidegger, and the legacy of Paul in modern western philosophy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
