This is my introductory discussion of Aristotle's Physics for the Technology & Nihilism series on my website (AthensCorner.com).
I introduce the importance of Aristotle's Physics by way of its enormous importance for Martin Heidegger, particularly his claim that Aristotle's Physics constitutes the foundation and wellspring of the entirety of the Western philosophical tradition.
Through a very meticulous reading of the introductory section of Aristotle's Physics, I emphasize the significance of "nature [phusis]," "logos," and "art [techne]" for the thought of both Aristotle and Heidegger and what we come to know as "science" and "technology." Along the way, I also discuss the significance of Descartes, Nietzsche, and the appearance of nihilism in Western civilization from the emphatically philosophical concepts at hand which Heidegger understands as the pre-conditions for why an urgent return to the thought of Aristotle is required of us in Postmodernity.
