| | Martin Heidegger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The question of being was revived by Heidegger after being eclipsed by the metaphysical tradition from Plato to Descartes, and more recently in the Enlightenment. |  | | Heidegger calls the showing up of beings' "truth", which he defines as unconcealment rather than correctness. |  | | Implicit in this traditional approach is the thesis that theoretical knowledge represents the most fundamental relation between the human individual and the beings in his surrounding world (including himself). |

| | Heidegger's Reading of Heraclitus |
 | | Heidegger traces the emphasis on logic and correctness to the Greek terms lovgo§ and ajlhvqeia, but argues that both terms--the first taken as gathering, the second as unconcealment--originally comprehended the relatedness of beings to one another and to what remains concealed. |  | | Heidegger seeks from this fragment some understanding of lovgo§ and levgein both broad enough to fit the leading role which they play in the extant fragments of Heraclitus' thought--given also his position prior to so many philosophical distinctions, but also specific enough to explain the ensuing dominance of lovgo§ in the narrow sense of logic. |  | | Heidegger translates the fragment with the following words: From that to which for the most part they are bound and by which they are thoroughly sustained, the Lovgo§, from that they separate themselves; and it becomes manifest: whatever they daily encounter remains foreign (in its presencing) to them. |

| | Heidegger |
 | | Heidegger's doctrine of death is metaphysically and theologically agnostic: he is not denying afterlife or personal resurrection, he is merely noting that as Dasein it is a possibility that death annihilates ourselves as we are, and even the religious (if they're honest) will acknowledge this (although they will deny that that possibility is the case). |  | | Note that Heidegger isn't (merely) noting the commonplace that it is an empirical (ontic, existentielle) fact that people die: it is an existential, ontological condition of Dasein that its possibilities possibly run out, and in an utterly unpredictable, contingent way. |  | | Note the way in which Heidegger's phenomenology helps him bypass the realist/idealist or realist/antirealist controversy. |

| | Martin Heidegger [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
 | | However, Heidegger breaks the word down to its components "Da" and "Sein," and gives to it a special meaning which is related to his answer to the question of who the human being is. He relates this question to the question of being. |  | | When Heidegger urges us to stand in being, he does not merely ask us to acknowledge our own place in being's history, but to be future-oriented and see the future in a unity with the past as having-been and the present. |  | | And yet, Heidegger was not Husserl's faithful follower. |

 | | It is however an incontrovertible fact that Heidegger did believe in a form of Nazism, the inner truth of this great movement, till the day he died. |  | | We also know that by the time Heidegger received his baccalaureate degree, he had rejected the vocation of priest in favor of that of scholar. |  | | It is also true that Heidegger began to distance himself from certain aspects of National Socialism. |

 | | Hence, Heidegger urges that it is not a matter of indifference, as such form and interpretation of language would have it, what these names "say to us," "how we hear them," and "whether in themselves they grant us what is today." |  | | It is significant that Heidegger is broaching the subject via linguistica for he criticizes here a definite form and interpretation of language. |  | | There is, to be sure, a kind of language that, as the expression of this form of thinking, is itself one-track and one-sided. |

| | Denis Dutton on Walter Kaufmann and Martin Heidegger |
 | | Such imposing formulations are repeated over and over....” The appeal of this thinking, moreover, comes from the way it presents a “secularized Christian preaching about guilt, dread, and death.” This from a man who claimed to break with two thousand years of Western thought. |  | | James D. Caputo of Villanova University has written that the abilities to recognize and express the mystical insights of the later writings required from Heidegger “delicate sensitivities and penetrating powers of thought.... |  | | I would add that, along with his secularized Christianity, this exegetical frame of mind also helps prepare a ready welcome for Heidegger in many places where Thomist philosophy retains a hold. |

 | | That is, Heidegger no longer placed Dasein at such a central place in the presencing of Being. |  | | Shortly after the birth of his son, Jorg, in 1919, Heidegger, in a letter to a colleague, wrote that he had decided to break with "the dogmatic system of Catholicism." |  | | For Heidegger, truth or aletheia is always both concealing and revealing. |

| | TRANSLATION AT THE MOUNTAIN OF DEATH |
 | | Celan came to see Heidegger to ask for a word of apology in relation to the events of the Second World War: the destruction, like cattle, of the Jewish people. |  | | It is not surprising then, that what should have been a peaceful countryside walk through glades, was, or became in the poet's mind and words, a walk over an earth in which the dead "sich hügeln" - "hill themselves" as Celan says somewhere else. |  | | Heute, today, indicates the burning necessity of the need for a word to come now, in this situation, in postwar Germany. |

 | | You have to give Wolin credit for choosing a very deserving topic, and the relationship of Heidegger to his many disciples, and especially his Jewish disciples, is worthy of a big fat book. |  | | If Wolin's verdicts sometimes come too easily, his arguments, at their best, provide insightful portraits of the intellectual evolution of some of the last century's most ambitious political and social thinkers. |  | | Herbert Marcuse, denounced by the pope in the late 1960's, became a philosophical guru for the New Left. |

 | | And it can be made to fit the liberal story of humans who are born free but now languish in the chains of ignorance and superstition, or the conservative story of a return to community after wandering in the wilderness of extreme individualism. |  | | But again --switching back to the stance of test a) -- the text itself doesn't quite go over the brink to say exactly what "destiny" requires one to do at a given moment -- say, in Germany in 1933. |  | | Heidegger is a curious case, since he was both the thinker and the would-be power-broker who applied (and, citing Heidegger against Heidegger, I'd also say who misapplied) his thought in the service of an ignoble end. |

 | | Since the study of beings qua beings can only be rooted in the ground of Being itself, there is a sense in which we must overcome metaphysics in order to appreciate its basis. |  | | Although traditional learning focusses on what is, Heidegger noted, it may be far more illuminating to examine the boundaries of ordinary knowledge by trying to study what is not. |  | | In the lecture, "What is Metaphysics?" Heidegger developed several of his themes in characteristically cumbersome language. |

 | | Martin Heidegger is widely regarded as one of the central figures of the existentialist movement and has had a major influence in the areas of phenomenology and ontology. |  | | Heidegger's contribution to philosophy is remarkably monolithic in its devotion to metaphysics and ontology. |  | | But the truth of the matter might well be that the language machine takes language into its management and thus masters the essence of the human being. |
