Summary: Good Reasons to read this German book
Comment: In Philosophy, German owns a kind of originary advantage over many other languages. Martin Heidegger would think of many of those "essential" advantages, but I'd like only to state a quite simple one. The most important part of modern and contemporary philosophy is written in German, and a translation, even a good one, does not entirely cope with the full comprehension of a work. Even more, the better the translation of an important German philosopher you get to read, the more you see a clear need to put your hands on the original. If this is true of Kant, Hegel, and Husserl, it is even more important for Heidegger.
Sein und Zeit deals with many problems, and mainly, with concrete human existence (Dasein). The categories it uses to describe the phenomenon of existence seem strange and abstract in English, and even more in Spanish, my language. In German, they become almost transparent, and you can see words form not a system, but a constellation that gives another sense to the whole picture. German words have an inmediate and concrete anchoring in the relation of the existent subject: they are, in a way, a map of possible relations within a world. I eagerly recommend this book to enrich the hard readings of Heidegger translations. Bye.
