Reviews

Claxton and Glazebrook have orchestrated a timely interrogation of the unthought in Heidegger's corpus with respect to gender, challenging the conception of Dasein as gender neutral. Drawing on the full range of Heidegger's texts, original contributions by leading scholars make the phenomenological dimensions of gender, sexuality, transgender identities, the woman, maternal Dasein, and being-toward-birth visible in ways that illuminate new paths of questioning Dasein's being-in-the-world. --David Pettigrew, CSU Professor and chair, philosophy department, Southern Connecticut State University

What has Heidegger got to do with performance? As this insightful and genuinely inter-disciplinary collection shows, the answer is a great deal. Offering a sustained weaving together of these themes, this work will be of great interest for researchers, practitioners, and students in philosophy of history and in performance studies.--Sacha Golob, King's College London
