Abstract Gustavo de Fraga was one of the most influential Portuguese phenomenologists. He had a deep understanding of the Husserlian as well as of the Heideggerian phenomenology. One of his major concerns was the connection between these thinkers, and the resettlement of metaphysical questions some step beyond the works of both. In so doing, Gustavo de Fraga took an original stance in the field of Phenomenology, combining conceptual and poetic experiences of thought.

Este artigo expõe duas teses sobre a fenomenologia: i) a fenomenologia em Husserl e Heidegger tem de ser compreendida como uma investigação sobre a origem ou a gênese. Há um conceito fenomenológico de origem que se diferencia do conceito metafísico que caracteriza a tradição filosófica; ii) a fenomenologia heideggeriana apresenta uma distinção essencial em relação à filosofia de Husserl, pois compreende a origem fenomenológica conjuntamente com um movimento de degeneração ontológica. Ao final, indica-se como essa relação entre origem e degeneração repercute sobre a compreensão de Heidegger acerca da linguagem filosófica.This paper presents two theses on phenomenology: i) phenomenology in Husserl and Heidegger should be understood as an investigation concerning origin or genesis. There is a phenomenological concept of origin that differs from the metaphysical concept which characterizes the philosophical tradition; ii) Heideggerian phenomenology presents an essential distinction in relation to Husserl's philosophy, since it understands the phenomenological origin together with a movement of ontological degeneration. In the end, we point out how this relation between origin and degeneration has a repercussion on Heidegger's understanding of philosophical language.

This article undertakes to examine the reception of Platonic theories of falsification in the contemporary philosophy of Leo Strauss and his adherents. The aim of the article is to consider the Straussian response to, and interaction with, Platonic ideas concerning deception and persuasion with an emphasis on the arguments found in the Laws. The theme of central interest in this analysis is Plato’s development of paramyth in the Laws. Paramyth entails the use of rhetorical language in order to persuade the many that it is to their advantage to obey certain laws. It does so without explaining in detail why a given law is ethically correct and its use assumes that the audience, on the whole, is not capable of understanding the finer philosophical underpinnings of the law. The so-called ‘noble lie’ of the Republic is also considered in this context. The crucial issue, for Plato if not for Strauss, is whether or not an instance of falsification, however minor, for the purposes of persuasion contains ‘truth-value’, that is, whether it is morally justifiable in terms of ends and means. In terms of Strauss’s reception of Plato, such issues as ancient Hebrew mysticism, Medieval Jewish and Islamic scholarship and Heideggerian Phenomenology figure in the argument. Ultimately, the article finds that Strauss and his followers have constructed a particular view of Platonic ideas that, while unique, is not compatible with their original signification.

This article will show how Natorp’s criticism of Husserlian phenomenology was one of the most important triggers of the hermeneutical transformation of Heideggerian phenomenology. Concepts like hermeneutical intuition, or tools like formal indication, are the means that Heidegger worked out in order to preserve the phenomenological access to pre-theoretical life as it gives itself. The first part of this article is devoted to presenting Natorp’s criticisms of Husserl’s phenomenology and Husserl’s attempts to answer them. The second part will illustrate how Heidegger, criticizing Natorp, retrieves the validity of the phenomenological intuition and expression by opening up their original, pre-theoretical meanings. It will conclude with a few critical remarks concerning Heidegger’s attempt to describe the motivation of philosophical activity in transcendental terms.

Este artigo pretende contribuir com o estudo da ontologia do espaço na obra de Martin Heidegger. Para tanto, dentro das limitações deste trabalho, procuramos analisar os contornos da fenomenologia heideggeriana, apontando como o filósofo alemão pensa a sua filosofia enquanto uma alternativa à metafísica tradicional concebida na modernidade. O objetivo central, aqui, é pôr em discussão o sentido do homem enquanto ser-no-mundo, entendendo o espaço como uma categoria de análise de grande importância para o homem-no-mundo, para a sociedade e, portanto, para a ciência geográfica. Abstract A STUDY ON THE ONTOLOGY OF SPACE IN WORK OF MARTIN HEIDEGGER This article aims to contribute to the study of the ontology of space in the work of Martin Heidegger. To do so, within the limitations of this work, we analyze the characteristics of Heideggerian phenomenology, pointing out how the German philosopher thinks his philosophy as an alternative to traditional metaphysics conceived in modernity. The main objective here is to focus discussion on the meaning of man as being in the world, understanding space as a category of analysis of great importance to man-in-the-world, to society and, therefore, for science geographical.

The article emphasizes the primacy of the everyday in Heidegger’s ecstatic thinking. It assumes the crucial link between practical and ontological aspects of Heideggerian phenomenology and thus also deals with the hermeneutic and political aspects of the Heideggerian stance. The latter is presented as inseparable from (post)modern revolutionary mood as his reconsidering of the concept of essence implies reconsidering the concept of revolution. Links between the meaning of the phenomenological terms of das Man, der Schein, etc. and the Greek thinking of essence are stressed. The Greek inspired phenomenological solution to the guiding practical and hermeneutic issue of our time – that of withdrawal of gods – is presented as the gist of Heideggerian thought.
