Heidegger and environmental ethics
No full textThis thesis presents an environmental ethic based on the philosophy of Martin Heidegger. Chapter One uses Heidegger's conception of 'dwelling' as the basis for a satisfying account of the 'otherness' or alterity of nature. Chapter Two draws upon Heidegger's writings on 'the dif-ference', Madhyamaka Buddhist philosophy and the metaphysics of Alfred North Whitehead to develop a 'dialectical' conception of holism which can accommodate both the account of alterity presented in Chapter One and an account of the intrinsic value of individual beings. Chapter Three frames this conception of environmental holism in terms of ethics. It is argued that Heidegger's ideal of 'releasement' can be thought of as an essential 'function' of humans, the exercise of which promotes human flourishing. Extending this Aristotelian line of reasoning, it is shown how one can draw upon Heidegger's philosophy to articulate a form of environmental virtue ethic. Chapter Four investigates the charge that Heidegger's later thought is quietistic, a general allegation which is analysed into four interrelated specific charges: 1) the accusation that Heidegger is advocating a passive withdrawal from the world; 2) Adorno's charge in Negative Dialectics that Heidegger's philosophy is inimical to critical thought; 3) the objection that Heidegger is unable to deal adequately with either interhuman relations or the relations between humans and nonhuman animals; and 4) the charge that Heidegger's later writings cannot be brought to bear upon practical environmental issues. In answer to this last objection, case studies are presented of two environmental issues: 1) the environmental impact of tourism; and 2) the practice of environmental restoration
Nilhilism in Nietzsche, Heidegger and Levinas
No full textThis thesis presents an account of nihilism in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, and a critical response to it using the philosophies of Martin Heidegger and Emmanuel Levinas. Chapter one gives an account of the three different types of nihilism in Nietzsche’s writings, and of how the latest outbreak of nihilism, modern European, came about. Chapter two presents Nietzsche's own responses to modern European nihilism, focusing on the overman, the will to power, the eternal recurrence and his view of truth, and points out the disturbing ethical implications of Nietzsche's responses to nihilism. Chapter three places Nietzsche’s philosophy within the context of Heidegger's account of nihilism as 'forgetfulness of Being', and considers Heidegger's critique of Nietzsche and the notion of 'values', Heidegger's account of the philosophical tradition since Plato, and his reflection on our ‘technological' understanding of Being as an inevitable result of the 'forgetfulness of Being’. Chapter four discusses how Being and Time and its critique of Descartes and the subject-object distinction can be seen as a response to nihilism as the 'forgetfulness of Being՝, and as an implicit part of Heidegger's critique of Nietzsche. Chapter five considers Heidegger’s response to nihilism in terms of his writings on authenticity, art, language, and thinking, and shows how all of these features of Heidegger's thought aim to attune us to Being as the mysterious 'source' of all particular understandings of being, a source to which we are beholden for the sense we are able to make in our lives. The potentially dangerous features of this picture of human life are then addressed, as is the lack of an explicitly ethical dimension to Heidegger's response to Nietzsche's explicitly ethical account of nihilism. Chapter six gives an account of Levinas's phenomenology of ethics and his critique of Heidegger and the philosophical tradition as 'philosophies of the Same'. It presents Levinas's theses concerning the importance of the other person in giving philosophical accounts of language, truth, and objectivity, and the heteronomous nature of the moral subject, as a way of making good the lack of an explicitly ethical response to Nietzschean nihilism in Heidegger’s philosophy
The ethics of thinking in Heidegger, Bruno & Spinoza
No full textThe aim of the present work is to face Heidegger’s claim that philosophy has ended.
Facing this claim for us has not taken the form of creating a new method or positing a
new question but that of a search for anomalies in what Heidegger decrees as
finished, which is philosophy as metaphysics. In his historical confrontation with the
history of thought Heidegger seems to have left out, dismissed or forgotten those
authors who do not fit into his definition of metaphysics. We have chosen Giordano
Bruno and Baruch Spinoza, metaphysical thinkers who have undertaken a
philosophical practice that does not intend to demolish subjectivity but actually
begins without any need for it. The birth of the subject as grounding reality finds its
affirmation with Descartes and inaugurates modernity that, according to Heidegger,
exhausts philosophy and leads it into the arms of modern science and technology.
Bruno and Spinoza respectively precede and follow the birth of modernity and of
modern science, which they look at with an eye that is not that of the modern subject.
Following their different approaches to philosophy, we shall also explore their
relation to Renaissance Humanism, dismissed by Heidegger as a historical reiteration
of the Roman world, perceived as a perversion of the Greek origin of thought. We
shall show how hasty such a dismissal is. Our goal is to show not merely that
Heidegger is wrong but that if Western thinking contains the seeds of its own end, it
also contains the ones of a different understanding of the Western world and its
achievements. The three authors will engage on the grounds of ontology, gnosiology
and ethics and yet we have defined the whole enterprise of this work as an ethics
overall. An ethics of thinking is a practice of thought that wishes to envisage the
possibility for Western man of inhabiting his own world by understanding himself
not as an isolated subject and master of nature but as the place where the unity and
multiplicity of nature come to be thought at the same time

O Ser da técnica conforme Martin Heidegger e Jacques Ellul
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em FilosofiaMartin Heidegger e Jacques Ellul sao geralmente considerados como pensadores que entenderam a tecnica moderna como uma entidade autonoma com relacao a vida humana, por mais que o homem seja o criador das tecnicas e artefatos. Heidegger parece ver na tecnica moderna uma sorte de destino a que o homem nao pode escapar. Ellul denuncia o #\fenomeno tecnico. como uma realidade que, uma vez instalada, escapa ao controle humano. Este trabalho analisa as ideias de ambos os pensadores e mostra que, no entanto, nao e facil atribuir a nenhum deles a crenca num determinismo tecnologico. Esperamos assim contribuir, nao apenas para a melhor compreensao desses autores, como tambem para saber ate que ponto somos donos da nossa vida ao vivermos num mundo quase totalmente tecnologico
The temporality of language : Kant's legacy in the work of Martin Heidegger and Walter Benjamin
No full textContrary to the idea that there are fundamental differences between the
work of Martin Heidegger and Walter Benjamin, the thesis shows that
there exists a profound similarity in the direction of their projects, by
exploring how they took up Kant's critical legacy concerning the
temporality of language: the belonging together of language and time.
The ground of Kant's system and of the necessity of systematicity - the
three-fold synthesis which 'generates' time under the direction of
conceptuality - is elucidated via the Second Analogy and the Critique of
Teleological Judgment. It is argued that Kant's understanding of language
and time remains fixed within a circular justification of Newtonian
Science, which prevented him from taking up the critical resources of his
treatment of teleological concepts and applying it to his idea of the
critical system itself. Heidegger's and Benjamin's work may be understood
as taking up the hermeneutic circularity of Kant's philosophical system,
though freeing it from its appeal to a limited time determination. They
both develop notions of a more originary temporality in conjunction with
a linguistic phenomenology. They further allow this more critical
thinking of language and time to reflexively fall back on the writing of
philosophy itself. Their understanding of the temporality of language is
explored through the way 'translation' focuses, in each case, a thinking
of tradition and of linguistic works. The thesis rejects attempts to
separate Heidegger's early work from his later approach, and further
rejects a tendency to focus on Benjamin's style of writing in isolation
from its theoretical basis. The thesis concludes by arguing that the
work of both Heidegger and Benjamin points to a rethinking of Kant's
legacy of the necessity of system, in terms of system as the inescapable
belonging together of language and time
The eclipse of being: Heidegger on the question of being and nothing and the ground of nihilism
No full textThis thesis explores Heidegger’s philosophy of Being and Nothing in the context of the problem of nihilism. Nietzsche diagnosed the present age as an age of nihilism in the sense of a ‘devaluation of the highest values’. Heidegger argues that Nietzsches’s diagnosis suffers from a fundamental failure to question the meaning of ‘nihil’ in ‘nihilism’. This failure is, according to Heidegger, shared by the history of metaphysics which Nietzsche brings to completion, and it is closely connected with the failure of metaphysics to address the question of Being as such.
We shall examine the emergence of Heidegger’s early phenomenological approach to the question of Being in his engagement and confrontation with Husserl’s phenomenology, and trace its subsequent development in major writings of his. It will be argued that Heidegger’s philosophy of Being permits for the first time a more adequate understanding of the problem of Nothing. Throughout the thesis, the horizon of the discussion is the question of the meaning and the ground of nihilism, which will also be addressed explicitly through an examination of Heidegger’s confrontation with Nietzsche
A temporalidade do ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem na experiência do cuidado: uma interpretação em Heidegger
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências da Saúde, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Enfermagem, Florianópolis, 2012.Pesquisa fenomenológica de caráter qualitativo, fundamentada no referencial teórico- filosófico de Martin Heidegger, teve como objetivo desvelar a temporalidade do ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem em sua experiência de cuidado. Os sujeitos do estudo foram dez acadêmicos que cursavam a terceira fase do Curso de Graduação em Enfermagem da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Os dados foram coletados nos meses de março a maio de 2011, por meio da entrevista fenomenológica, a qual foi audiogravada e transcrita posteriormente. No referencial metodológico, foram utilizados os pressupostos da hermenêutica heideggeriana sob três enfoques: a pré-compreensão, considerada como a aproximação teórica do fenômeno do ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem, o cuidado e a aproximação com os conceitos envolvidos na temática. A compreensão envolveu a descrição historiográfica dos eventos relatados pelo ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem por meio da estratégia do "Movimento da Temporalidade". Por fim, temos a interpretação do fenômeno, por meio da historicidade do ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem, registrada em forma de quatro manuscritos: 1) Vivências de cuidado do ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem:história,cultura e tradição em Heidegger e Gadamer; 2) Historicidade e historiografia do ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem na construção do cuidado em Heidegger; 3) Temporalidade: o existir e a perspectiva da finitude para o ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem ao experienciar a morte; 4) A escolha profissional de ser enfermeiro como possibilidade de cuidado autêntico. O ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem é um ser vinculado com o cuidado, percebe a si mesmo e ao outro como possibilidade para desenvolver suas potencialidades como ser-no-mundo. Ser autêntico, vinculado à cultura e à tradição familiar, preocupa-se, quer tornar-se um profissional de enfermagem comprometido com tudo o que a envolve. Pensa o cuidado como possibilidade de estar junto com o outro, ajudando carinhosamente, amorosamente, em todos os espaços em que essas situações se apresentem. É um ser temporal, reconhece a sua finitude e a do outro. Como um ser-para-a-morte, experiência a dor e o sofrimento da perda em sua vida. Conclui-se que o ser-acadêmico-de-enfermagem é um ser rico em possibilidades para o cuidado. Mostra-se por vezes ser inautêntico e vive a cotidianidade, mas, por outro lado, às vezes, desvela-se como um ser autêntico, vinculado às coisas de seu tempo.Abstract : This is a phenomenological qualitative research, based upon theoretical-philosophical referential of Martin Heidegger, with the aim of unveil the temporality of being-of-academic-nursing in care experience.Ten students of the third semester of the Nursing Course at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina were the subjects of this study. Data were collected from March to May 2011, by means of phenomenological interviews, which were audiotaped and later transcribed. For the methodological referential, Heideggerian hermeneutical assumptions were undertaken under three approaches: pre-understanding, considered as the theoretical approximation of the phenomenon of being-a-nursing-student, care and approximation with concepts involved in the thematic. Understanding involved historiographical description of events reported by the being-a-nursing-student where Movement of Temporality strategy was adopted. Lastly, there was the interpretation of the phenomenon, through historicity of being-a-nursing-student, registered as four manuscripts: 1) Experiences of care of be student-in-nursing: history, culture and tradition of Heidegger and Gadamer; 2) Historicity and historiography of be-nursing-student built care in Heidegger; 3)Temporality: existence and the perspective of finitude to be-student-nursing by experiencing death; 4) Expectations with the professional choice: nursing as a possibility of authentic care. Being-a-nursing-student is a human being bound to care, understands oneself and the other as a possibility to develop one#s own potentialities as a being-in-the-world. Being authentic, bound to culture and family traditions, he/she is concerned and wishes to become a nursing professional committed with all that it takes. Thinks about care as being together with the other, tenderly and lovingly caring, wherever these situations occur. A temporal being, recognizes one#s finitude as well as the finitude of others. As a being-prone-to-die, pain and suffering due to loss in life are experienced. The conclusion is that being-a-nursing-student is a human being rich in caring possibilities. Sometimes he/she is seen as unauthentic and living common everyday life, but, on the other hand, sometimes reveals oneself as an authentic being, bound to contemporary things
Work as Total Reason for Being: Heidegger and Jünger’s 'Der Arbeiter'
No full textThis article examines Heidegger’s reading of Ernst Jünger’s 1932 Der Arbeiter by making appeal not only to Heidegger’s remarks on the work (and its associated text “Die totale Mobilmachung”) scattered in various texts, but by concentrating on Heidegger’s now‐available seminar notes and marginal notes to his actual copy of the text. Heidegger held two seminars on Der Arbeiter, one shortly after its publication and one in 1938, which show his close confrontation not only with Jünger’s reading of Nietzsche, but also Heidegger’s own Nietzsche examination. The article shows how Heidegger distinguishes himself from Jünger by, on the one hand, seeing Der Arbeiter as very much a product of its time and, on the other, identifying a prescience in Nietzsche of a Europe and planetary phenomenon (globalisation) yet to come. This is accomplished in the naming of the triad of Bolshevism, fascism (Nazism), and Americanism metaphysically as the singularity of “world democracy”, and as an entirely nihilistic phenomenon. The article therefore relates the confrontation of these two thinkers with the third (Nietzsche) to issues of the demand for justice, democracy, and the will to power in contemporary economic and political developments, as well as to wider themes in Heidegger’s thought of the end (or consummation) of metaphysics, the will to power, and valuation
