Dark Reckoning: A Steve Williams Novel (The Steve Williams Series, Book 1) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 516min

A sadistic killer stalks the secluded college town of Brooksfield, New Hampshire. With bodies piling up and rumors of the murders being part of sacrificial hazing rituals, the FBI plants Special Agent Steve Williams in a fraternity at Brooksfield University. His investigation takes a 90 degree turn into the bizarre when he’s introduced to Jennifer, a clairvoyant coed who swears the killer isn’t human. Steve considers the plausibility of the extraordinary, the unspeakable, even the inconceivable, when his notebook starts bleeding cryptic messages. Messages that indicate Jennifer is at the heart of the darkness in Brooksfield. When she describes her latest vision, a trail of violent deaths, including his, Steve asks the million-dollar question: Is Jennifer trying to help...or is she actually the one responsible? “J E Taylor writes a thrilling and engaging paranormal horror, Dark Reckoning. The absorbing, fluid plot builds slowly towards its divergent terror-driven climax. I do love a great horror story, so I’m adding this beauty to my ebook collection. Marking it for a repeat read too.” (Pamela Jenewein, Romance at Heart Reviews)"J.E. Taylor has penned a tale of terror worthy of Lovecraft. The strong characters, edgy atmosphere, and unflinching narrative hooked me from the first and kept me riveted all the way through to its horrifying conclusion - a solid piece of storytelling!" (Ty Drago, editor of Allegory and author of Phobos)“I loved Dark Reckoning - always had a soft spot for demon type horror/thrillers and this is fabulous. Just the right mix of terror and calm so I didn't have a heart attack while reading but came close! Excellent read for anyone who loves horror and a good love story.” (Cat Connor, author of Killerbyte and Terrorbyte) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bob Brill.

Gesamtausgabe Abt. 2 Vorlesungen 1919 - 1944 Bd. 18. Grundbegriffe der aristotelischen Philosophie

Bei der Vorlesung über Grundbegriffe der aristotelischen Philosophie handelt es sich um die zweite Marburger Vorlesung Martin Heideggers, die er im Sommersemester 1924 vierstündig hielt. Nicht nur die Tatsache, dass Heidegger um 7 Uhr in der Frühe las, bedeutete damals eine unerhörte Provokation für den des Nachts seine Schüler um sich sammelnden Marburger Kollegen Nicolai Hartmann, sondern vor allem die gegen die neukantianische Fixierung auf erkenntnistheoretische Fragestellungen und diesseits aller neothomistischen Aneignung ernstgenommene ontologische Forschung des Aristoteles. Auf der Grundlage seiner seit 1922 im Hinblick auf ein Buchprojekt neu intensivierten und stets eng am griechischen Original erfolgenden Lektüre der aristotelischen Metaphysik, Physik, Nikomachischen Ethik, Politik, Rhetorik sowie der Schriften De anima und De partibus animalium unternimmt es Heidegger, eine beachtliche Anzahl der darin gebrauchten Grundbegriffe zur Auslegung zu bringen, so insbesondere die Begriffe logos, ousia, agathon, teleion, doxa, ethos, pathos, hexis, phobos, entelecheia, energeia, steresis, dynamis und kinesis. So sehr Heidegger sich dabei einerseits von der inneren Dynamik der Texte leiten und das heißt: von einem Begriff zum nächsten fortreißen lässt, so macht sich doch andererseits ein systematischer Impetus bemerkbar, der den Gang der Vorlesung zu einem klar erkennbaren hermeneutischen Doppelschritt fügt: In der Orientierung an aristotelischen Grundbegriffen wird das menschliche Dasein im Sinne des miteinandersprechenden In-der-Welt-Seins als des Bodens für alle Begrifflichkeit herausgestellt, um dann von diesem Boden aus den Begriff der kinesis als radikales Ergreifen der Ausgelegtheit des Daseins zu interpretieren. Was sich hierin ankündigt, ist nichts anderes als die fundamentalontologische Analytik des Daseins, wie sie zu jener Zeit im Denken Heideggers Gestalt annimmt und drei Jahre später in Sein und Zeit der weiteren Öffentlichkeit vorgestellt werden wird.
