Autor: Lonergan, Bernard J.F. Buch: Topics in Education Titel: Topics in Education Stichwort: Heidegger, What does Heidegger mean by das Seiende? das Man Kurzinhalt: one is in the field in which the unconditioned, truth, and truth as the medium through which being is known have not been reached. Textausschnitt: 76/7 In both Heidegger and Jaspers, one is in the field in which the unconditioned, truth, and truth as the medium through which being is known have not been reached. Heidegger speaks a great deal of das Seiende and of Sein. He aims at an ontology, but he is quite clear that he has not got there yet, and he does not see how one can. He deals with the ontic in the hope of being able to arrive at an ontology. (Ontology means an account of being; ontic is just being.) What does Heidegger mean by das Seiende? He means the given as merely given, as stripped of all intelligibility, which, after all, comes from the intelligence of the subject. To know das Seiende one needs a breakdown of consciousness, because consciousness intellectualizes, makes intelligible the whole flow of experience. You need a breakdown of consciousness to know what das Seiende is. |
