Interpreting A Misinterpretation: Ludwig Binswanger and Martin Heidegger

Binswanger, Heidegger, and Antisemitism: Reply to Abigail Bray: “The Silence Surrounding ‘Ellen West’: Binswanger and Foucault”

“…After the war, as we know from the recent publication of Heidegger's Zollikoner Seminare (1987), Heidegger took up relations with Medard Boss, rather than Binswanger (see Frie, 1999a). Together, Heidegger and Boss made a series of stinging public rebukes of Binswanger during the 1950s and 1960s because of the latter's apparent "misinterpretation" of the philosopher's work.…”

“…We would be happy to expand on and provide detailed references for any of the statements we make. In addition, many of these facts have been discussed and explored in other publications (Frie, 1997(Frie, , 1999a(Frie, , 1999b(Frie, , 2000(Frie, , 2001Hoffmann 1996Hoffmann , 1997aHoffmann , 1997bHoffmann , 1998aHoffmann , 1998bHoffmann , 1999.…”

Psicologia e Filosofia na Abordagem Fenomenológico-Existencial: Um Estudo sobre Frankl e Heidegger

“…Binswanger , por pioneiro que foi na apropriação da filosofia de Heidegger para a compreensão psiquiátrica, inaugurou a dificuldade de transpor a filosofia para a psicologia/psiquiatria.
