This extremely rich volume gathers more than thirty brand-new essays by leading scholars to explore the many meanings of “After Heidegger.” Is his philosophy a thing of the past? Is our way of thinking influenced by Heidegger like Francis Bacon’s “Study after Velázquez” is indebted to the Spanish painter? Do we go 'after' Heidegger like spurned lovers or dogged investigators?
— Dieter Thomä, Professor of Philosophy at the University of St Gallen, and editor of the Heidegger Handbuch
After a careful reading, the most striking traits of this volume are the diversity and the originality of the ways of thinking opened by dealing with Heidegger’s legacy […]. The substantial mix of the topics, which range from Heidegger’s fundamental questions […], concepts and ideas […], critiques […], his accounts on life, phenomenology, hermeneutics, ontology, art, poetry, history, to matters concerning his historical situation […], makes this volume relevant for a wide range of researchers. […] Overall, with its rich and original content, renowned international authors and thematic diversity, “After Heidegger?” has all the ingredients to be a sought-after milestone when one genuinely embarks on the adventure of thinking after Heidegger.

After Heidegger? has the larger scope, in that it attempts to engage with pretty much every major phase and dimension of Heidegger's
intellectual career from his earliest teaching on life and existence to his late thoughts on East–West dialogue, with
a view to distinguishing what remains fruitful from what should be discarded.
