Moved paragraph here
Epimetheus plays a key role in the philosophy of Bernard Stiegler, and in particular in terms of his understanding of the relation between technogenesis and anthropogenesis; according to Stiegler, it is significant that Epimetheus is entirely forgotten in the philosophy of Martin Heidegger.

The above should not be readded into the article without a more comprehensible explanation of what it means. -- Cimon Avaro&#59; on a pogostick. (talk) 17:34, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
