What is Hegel and Heidegger on Nature and World about?

The philosophical concepts of “nature” and “world” have overlapped one another in a myriad of ways throughout the history of Western philosophy. Nevertheless, modernity has constructed a decisive philosophical dichotomy between the domain of nature and the domain of the human world as a response to the revolutions of the natural sciences in the seventeenth century. In __Hegel and Heidegger on Nature and World__, Raoni Padui investigates the responses to this distinction between nature and world in the works of Hegel and Heidegger. Both philosophers attempt to heal the wounds of modernity and to reconcile the human historical world to the domain of nature, and both refuse to accept the dichotomy between nature and world, seeking to offer a way in which humans can inhabit a meaningful world without being alienated from the nature that conditions it. However, the difference in their modes of reconciliation illustrates the options opened up by modern philosophy: either a Hegelian path of self-determination that traces our historical emancipation from the natural domain, or a Heideggerian rethinking of nature that seeks a renewed proximity to the domain of things.
