Variations on Heidegger´s Concept of Man

Abstract

The aim of this article is to explore the different moments of the understanding of the concept of man in Heidegger's work, taking into account what has come to be known as the first and second periods of his writings. In this sense, short reflections are made to first show what is meant by Dasein (being there) and by man in Being and Time, emphasizing that in that work, "man" is a concept of minor importance. After that, the reintroduction of the concept of man in Heidegger's philosophy is presented based on a phenomenological-hermeneutic approach and its developments. Next, we describe what kind of role the concept of man plays in his thinking about the truth of being after 'the turn' (Kehre). Eventually, we show how central this concept is for the reflection on the appropriative event of being (Ereignis).
