What's so special about this guy, Veeky Forums? Is he a charlatan or a great philosopher? I haven't read Being and Time yet, but some of his other works, and I gained nothing, or few things.

You cannot fully understand Heidegger if you are unfamiliar with the German philosophical tradition, its language and vocabulary.
Just get a good introductory book.

You should not read Heidegger, you should study him.
His lamguage may seem obscurantist at a first sight, but it's not: every word is chones carefully to escape post-Descartes prejudices (which has always been a pretty big part of his philosophy).

I don't want to study him. I want to study Hegel.

primordial time is evil

Yeah it's annoying, but after all, he's not the only philosopher who makes a good teacher/companion absolutely necessary. It's decently rewarding when you're into it, even if there's some garbage too. I hate the "let's publish everything he wrote" attitude, it's too early for that, people should focus on his main works for a few more decades.

Heidegger BTFO'd Hegel (and everyone before him, he pretty much calls them cowards) so you may want to study him. Also he was a Nazi and thats cool.
Ayden Wood
