Actually, I didn't mean to especially emphasize Being and Time because it is 
an "absolute masterpiece", though perhaps it is. I mean to emphasize it 
because judging by certain things Heidegger says later on and from reading 
through some of his later works, it seems to me that Being and Time is in 
various ways constantly being referred to.
