Helene Weiss (24 October 1898 – 1951) was a German philosopher. Among the earliest disciples of Martin Heidegger, she studied with him from the early 1920s through the early 1930s, whereupon she fled Nazi Germany and became a scholar especially of ancient Greek philosophy abroad. Her carefully edited notes of the discussion in Heidegger's seminars, in 1921–1934, which she collated with those of others, revealed the importance of close Aristotle scholarship in the development of Being and Time; they have recently become a theme of intense research.
