Dasein

Also found in: Wikipedia.

Dasein

(German) humankind's basic mode of participation in the world: ‘Being-in-the-world’ – a central concept in HEIDEGGER's philosophy. Three main aspects of Dasein were explored by Heidegger:

‘facticity’-what is ‘given’, one's own origins;
‘extentiality’ – one's ‘purposive being’ and creative potential;
the tendency to deny one's unique potential – a loss of ‘authenticity’. ‘Unauthentic’ action occurs in modes of being in which action is ‘depersonalized’, or regarded as ‘objectivized’. See also EXISTENTIALISM.

Where I Find Myself is Not Where I am Supposed to Be. An Enquiry into Trauma and Temporality with Reference to the Philosophy of Martin Heidegger

Heidegger advierte que la estructura trascendental del Dasein, que radica en el movimiento hacia la comprension del ser en su desocultamiento o el comportamiento con el ente cuando aquel se oculta, resulta una interpretacion subjetiva y queda reducida a su caracter ontico.

LA COMPRENSION DEL ZWISCHEN EN CUANTO A SU TENSIVIDAD EN LA FILOSOFIA DE HEIDEGGER/THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE ZWISCHEN IN TERMS OF ITS TENSENESS IN HEIDEGGER'S PHILOSOPHY

A middle-ground approach is adopted, according to which Heidegger's post-Being and Time thought is characterized by an engagement with thinking conceived from out of the domain of truth, rather than the transcendental subjectivism of Dasein; a receptivity to Being, as seen in notions like Gelassenheit and Being's "mystery"; a concentration on the "event" of Being, understood communally and historically; and philosophy conceived as a practice rather than an academic exercise.

El objetivo de esta reflexion consiste en repensar criticamente la racionalidad metodica desde la nocion de comprension, entendida no como ideal metodico, sino como la forma originaria de realizacion del Dasein, atendiendo al giro legado por Heidegger y desarrollado por Gadamer, en el que la comprension (Verstehen) es concebida como el modo de ser del Dasein.

Esta afirmacion escrita por Levinas en su madurez se ha de leer en relacion con las siguientes afirmaciones escritas por Levinas en ese periodo de profunda reflexion que se dio durante su cautiverio en el Stalag: "Partir del Dasein o partir del 'judaismo'".
