Nosso objetivo é refletir sobre a constituição ontológico-existencial da corporeidade em Heidegger, a partir da estrutura ser-no-mundo e dos existenciais da mundanidade do mundo, disposição e compreender. Nossa hipótese consiste em que a corporeidade é um modo de ser e, portanto, um existencial da presença (Dasein). Primeiramente, analisaremos a importância e as dificuldades relativas ao tema da corporeidade no pensamento heideggeriano, ao mesmo tempo em que indicaremos a viabilidade da temática proposta. Em seguida, discutiremos o caráter de abertura dos existenciais com o intuito de estabelecermos o nexo ontológico entre estas aberturas. Com isto, pretendemos esclarecer porque a corporeidade é um existencial que estrutura a presença em modos de ser. Fundamentados nos Seminários de Zollikon e em Ser e tempo discutiremos a relação entre espacialidade e corporeidade existencial, através das características constitutivas de direcionamento, distanciamento e proximidade. Por fim, apontaremos que a constituição ontológico-existencial da corporeidade é, ao mesmo tempo, uma constituição hermenêutica da corporeidade.Abstract: Our aim is to reflect over the ontological and existential constitution of corporeity in Heidegger in the lighit of the being-in-the-world structure as well as of the existentials of the mundanity of the world, disposition and conunderstanding. Our hypothesis is that corporeity is a mode of being and, therefore, an existential of the being-there (Dasein). First of all, we will analyze the importance and difficulties related to the issue of corporeity in Heideggerian thought, and indicate the viability of the proposed theme. We will then discuss the openness characteristic of existentials, in order to establish the ontological connection between them. This approach will help us clarify why corporeity is an existential that structures the being-there into modes of being. Taking as a basis the Zollikon Seminars and Being and Time, we will discuss the relationship between spaciality and existential corporeity, through the constitutive characteristics of direction (“directioning”), distanciation and proximity. Finally, we will point that the ontological-existential constitution of corporeity is also a hermeneutic constitution of corporeity.

The impossible moral in Heidegger is based on two fundamental facts: firstly, that Heidegger devoted himself to the theme of being. All other issues, thesis or questions derive from that fundamental and unique “question about the meaning of Being”. Secondly, the ontological question in Heidegger wasn’t the question for the entity, but the question for the Being. On these bases, “The impossible moral” in Heidegger arises from his initial ontological argumentation from which all other structures derive and that Heidegger tries to separate from each anthropological, psychological or biological matter. In fact, we may suggest that an ethical approach in Heidegger could only arise from the exegesis of the structural whole of the “being-in-the-world”. This would happen by apprehending the original being of the “being-there” as “care” that isn’t anything else that the manifestation of the following features: “being-with” and “being one’s self”. All these without forgetting that Being and time has an ontological fundamental intention. Finally, “The impossible moral” in Heidegger is given by his radical antihumanism.

Although the question of relationship between basic concepts of traditional ontology and central concepts of fundamental ontology is not a topic which is systematically dealt with in Being and Time, it is obvious that some of the theses which are crucial not only for Heidegger's interpretation of philosophical tradition, but also for the whole project of fundamental ontology, concern this 'conceptual scheme'. In fact, the backbone of Heidegger's critical confrontation with dominant philosophical conceptions is the question of relationship between the concept of 'substance' and the concept of 'Being', i.e. the discussion of philosophical doctrines in which 'Being' is reduced to 'substance'. Besides this context, which concerns the ontological problematics in the strict sense, it is possible to show that the refutation of the basic categories of traditional ontology is an issue which has a decisive role in more concrete phases of the realization of the project of fundamental ontology. This is especially confirmed in Heidegger's discussion of the concept of 'Being-There'. The interpretation of Heidegger's treatment of the relationship between the concepts of 'Being-there', 'existence' and 'existentials' on the one hand, and the concepts of 'substance', 'essence' and 'categories' on the other, shows that one of Heidegger's basic theses is that a transformation of concepts of traditional ontology is necessary for an appropriate understanding of human being.

Objective To understand the perceptions of nursing teachers about care in the light of Heidegger’s framework. It was used as theoretical and methodological reference Hei- degger’s hermeneutics. Method To capture the meanings we used phenomenological interviews with 11 teachers. e data analysis is based on heideggerian hermeneutic. Results The way to be a nurse determines their way of life to the care that re ects the construction of experiences in the nursing worldliness. The existence of the nurse for nursing care is evidenced in care relations established between being careful and being caregiver, deciding the mode of being-there of the nurse who has before him and on the other the possibilities of care. Conclusions It is being in the world that the being-nurse is manifested in their subjectivity in care for sensitive, is the objectivity of scienti c care, and is in the interrelationship with being careful is that manifests the being of choices and existing decisions in his way of being.

Following claims that Being and Time was essentially philosophical anthropology, and questions about the embodiment and mortality of Dasein, and Heidegger recurred to the distinction between humans who, as being-there, create a “world” for themselves and confront their death resolutely, versus animals who are caught up in their natural environments and do not die so much as “perish” biologically. In 1929 he studied the work of gestalt biologists like Jakob von Uexküll to support his arguments for the world-poverty of animals, unable hermeneutically to forge a real “world.” By 1936, nevertheless, his logic faltered when he argued that the age of technology and giganticism had reduced most humans to mere “technicized animals.” Even if this was a rhetorical flourish, it remained that only an anxious few remained among us who could dwell poetically and be free for their death, an idea with significant implications for the metaphysical politics Heidegger developed in response to Nazi politics. By 1949, the technicized animal—poor in world—appeared to perish with no greater resoluteness and dignity than its animal relatives.

The discussion of Heidegger's “destructive retrieve” of Aristotle has been intensified in recent years by the publication of Heidegger's courses in the years surrounding his magnum opus. Heidegger's explicit commentary on Aristotle in these courses permits one to read Being and Time with Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics and Metaphysics. My paper analyzes a network of differences between the two thinkers, focusing on the relationship between theory and praxis. From Aristotle to Heidegger, there is: (1) a shift from the priority of actuality to the priority of possibility. This shift, I argue, is itself the metaphysical ground of: (2) a shift from the priority of theory to the priority of praxis. This shift is seen most clearly in the way in which (3) Heidegger's notion of Theorie is a modification of his poíesis. The temporal ground of the reversal is seen in (4) Heidegger's notion of transcendence towards the world, and not towards an eternal being.

Abstract Martin Heidegger was one of the most influential but also criticized philosophers of the XX century. With Being and Time 1927 he sets apart his existential analytic from psychology as well as from anthropology and from the other human sciences that deny the ontological foundation, overcoming the Cartesian dualism in search of the ontological unit of an articulated multiplicity, as human being is. Heidegger’s Dasein Analytic defines the fundamental structures of human being such as being-in-the-world, a unitary structure that discloses the worldhood of the world; the modes of being (Seinsweisen), such as fear (Furcht) and anxiety (Angst); and the relationship between existence and time. In his existential analytic, anxiety is one of the fundamental moods (Grundbefindlichkeit) and it plays a pivotal role in the relationship of Dasein with time and world. The paper firstly focuses on the modes of being, underlining the importance of anxiety for the constitution of human being; secondly, it shows the relationship between anxiety and the world, and anxiety and time: rejecting both the Aristotelian description of time, as a sequence of moments that informs our common understanding of time, and the Augustine’s mental account of inner time, Heidegger considers temporality under a transcendental point of view. Temporality is ek-static, it is a process through which human being comes toward and back to itself, letting itself encounter the world and the entities. The transcendental interpretation of time provided by Heidegger may give its important contribution to psychopathology.

‘Being’ describes the importance that Heidegger ascribed to considering the nature of an object, or its Being, before addressing knowledge of it. Whereas other philosophers, including Aristotle, treated all entities as vorhanden, ‘present at hand’, as appropriate objects of disinterested description, Heidegger argued for multiple conceptions of Being. These conceptions included the existence of the object, qualities that distinguish it from others, and its mode of Being—as a real entity rather than an ideal one, for instance. Heidegger was convinced that Being must be considered in the context of the world around and of the relationship of the subject of inquiry to the object considered.

This article examines Martin Heidegger's concept of conscience in Being and Time as it is manifested by the characters Don Draper from the television series Mad Men (Matthew Weiner, 2007-2013) and Chauncey Gardiner in the film Being There (Hal Ashby, 1979). The article suggests that Draper hears and occasionally responds to what Heidegger terms the “call of conscience,” whereas Gardiner neither hears this call nor responds to it. Gardiner poses a problem case for Heidegger’s account of Dasein by virtue of failing to exhibit conscience. A question latent in Gardiner’s makeup is what causes him to be this way. The contrast of the characters Draper and Gardiner is approached through the lens of the portrayal of secret identity in filmic media. Both characters live public lives that are at odds with their genuine selves, but they react to this disconnect differently. Core concepts addressed vis-a-vis Heidegger’s account of conscience include facticity, falling, discourse, authenticity, and death. The article concludes that Draper hears and responds to conscience’s call because he has a discursive comprehension of the disconnect between his true self and the public life he has lived; a crucial component of the phenomenon of conscience according to Heidegger is the existential capacity for discourse. Gardiner, in contrast, does not hear conscience at all because his Dasein lacks the discursive element that conscience requires in order to be activated. Gardiner’s being-in-the-world is such that he fails to understand the divide between his lived self and his public self. For Gardiner, these are the same.

The essay carries out the primary phenomenological explication of rapprochement (drawing nearer) as a fundamental mode of Being-with-one-another. Proceeding from the existential interpretation of space given in Heidegger's Being and Time the author shows that Heidegger's clarification concentrates exclusively on the relation to an ready-to-hand equipment and ignores the question of how nearness and distance in the relation to the Other are determined while the very approach chosen by Heidegger for such clarification turns to be unacceptable for this new question. In this connection the paper is aimed, first of all, at letting the phenomenon show itself. It is achieved due to the phenomenological description of the experience of death of the near one. This experience proves the fact of nearness in its immediate evidence and in actu. Explication of the phenomenon of drawing nearer allows, finally, to introduce several basic characteristics which distinguish the world of nearness from the world of publicity.
