  Through the confrontation of Heideggerian and Thomist thought, this book offers an original rethinking of the nature of temporality and the origins of metaphysical inquiry. It offers a treatment of the inception and deterioration of the four-fold presuppositions of Thomistic metaphysics: intentionality, causality, finitude, and ananke stenai.
