An in-depth course on Martin Heidegger led by Fernando Flores and B. Scot Rousse. This course was designed to explore the beauty and the joy of thinking by exploring the work of the philosopher Martin Heidegger. To be able to think is not a matter of providing arguments or grounding for opinions you hold; in fact, to participate in thinking is to go beyond the realm of knowledge. Thinking is the exercise of sensibilities; sensibilities for engaging with the world
