Breaking Grounds
Thinking with Reiner SchürmannEdited by David Payne and Marcia Sá Cavalcante Schuback
Diaphanes, 2025
An anthology of responses to Reiner Schürmann’s philosophical research, writings, and commentaries.
In recent years, academic interest in Reiner Schürmann’s philosophical work has grown significantly. His thought on “the principle of anarchy “ and on “broken hegemonies” has begun to draw greater attention and has inspired recent works by, among others, Catherine Malabou and Giorgio Agamben. In times of globalization and uni-dimensionalization, Schürmann’s deconstruction of the concept of the One, upon which western metaphysics and civilization has consolidated its power, is more than actual. It seems urgent. The present volume gathers, for the first time in an anthology, contributions from scholars from different parts of the world who have been studied and engaged with Schürmann’s thought over the years. The anthology is the outcome of the first international conference on Schürmann’s philosophical work held at Södertörn University, in 2021 in Stockholm, addressing the legacy of his thought on broken hegemonies.
With contributions by Claudia Baracchi, Peg Birmingham, Emmanuel Cattin, Marcia Sá Cavalcante Schuback, Astrid Grelz, Francesco Guercio, Peter Hanly, Nomadic Joy, Krystof Kasprzak, Jérôme Lèbre, Reginald Lilly, Michael Marder, Alberto Martinengo, Ian Alexander Moore, David Payne, Ramona Rat, Elisabeth Rigal, Gustav Strandberg.

Heidegger's De(con)struction of Metaphysics
Reiner Schürmann
Diaphanes, 2021
In Being and Time, Heidegger announced the “Task of Destroying the History of Ontology” in order to free what had remained “unthought” in Western metaphysics. The unpublished part of that work was to be titled “Basic Features of a Phenomenological Destruction of the History of Ontology. According to the Guiding Thread of the Problem of Temporality.” This latest work in the Reiner Schürmann Selected Writings and Lecture Notes series aims to carry out Heidegger’s plan. The destruction, or, as it is later called, the deconstruction of metaphysics, has a negative side—the peeling off, or the archeology, of metaphysical history by means of the guiding thread of the question of Being—and a positive side—“retrieval” of the original experience of Being in ancient Greek philosophy.
“The destruction has no other intent than to win back the original experience of metaphysics through a deconstruction of those conceptions which have become current and empty.” The purpose of taking to pieces the fabric of Western metaphysics is to show how at each important stage “the question of the meaning of Being has not only remained unattended to or inadequately raised, but that it has become quite forgotten in spite of all our interest in 'metaphysics'.”
