Los Angeles Times article of Nov. 24, 2007: "The iPod lecture circuit" featuring Prof. Dreyfus —

The iPod lecture circuit:
Technology is bringing the ivory tower to big rigs and fishing boats, offering the chance to study existentialism or
theoretical physics. By Michelle Quinn
Los Angeles Times Staff Writer

Prof. Dreyfus suffers from a mild case of prosopagnosia or "face blindness". So, although he has met you before, and sometimes more than once, it is quite probable than he will not recognize you when you meet again. Please, re-introduce yourself telling him when and where you met the previous time(s). Thank you.

Philosophy 189: “The Origin of the Work of Art” in the Context of Heidegger’s Later Thinking

In this undergraduate seminar we will focus on Heidegger’s account of works of art as cultural paradigms, and his turn to Hölderlin as an exemplary poet who produces and preserves meaning in “destitute times”. This will also involve examining Heidegger’s complex views on technology and its role in our modern world.

The essay collections Poetry, Language, Thought and Elucidations of Hölderlin’s Poetry by Martin Heidegger have been ordered for the course. A few additional texts will be made available later in a reader or on b-space.

Enrollment is limited to 20 (by application only). Preference will be given to Philosophy majors or those who have already taken a course on Heidegger.

To apply to enroll students should submit a brief statement (less than a page long) to the instructors via email (dreyfusATberkeley.edu and kukATberkeley.edu) by May 27th, explaining their interest in this seminar and their background in philosophy. Those accepted will be notified and given a course enrollment code via email soon thereafter.
