Akkökler Karatekeli, Büşra; Turan, Şeref Halil; Department of Philosophy (2016)

In the following, I investigate how Nietzsche’...

This perspective and thought require existence to be viewed as groundless and excessive and particularly as a constant flux of becoming that is ...
The relevancy of art and time in Heidegger's philosophy
Sarıot, Eray; Çırakman, Elif; Department of Philosophy (2008)

The temporality of the artwork in question is investigated specifically in terms of its basic elements of earth and world and with its relation to authenticity. In this ...
