Heidegger on Affect

Christos Hadjioannou is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Faculty of Philosophy, Sofia University, "St. Kliment Ohridski”, Bulgaria. Co-editor of Heidegger on Technology (Routledge, 2018) and Towards a New Human Being (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019), he publishes frequently on Heidegger and Husserl, with research interests in hermeneutic phenomenology and existentialism.

“This collection can be considered a major contribution to its own field, one that simultaneously invites further productive engagement with the theme from anyone interested in what Heidegger brings to bear on affects (be it from within the field or from without). The volume’s efficacy lies in seriously considering how affects are existentially pertinent to human beings, deepening the widely-held intuition that they are. For that reason, it is of considerable merit and should be of interest to many.” (Tijmen Lansdaal, Phenomenological Reviews, December 10, 2019)
