Heidegger's concept of phenomenology

Burt C. Hopkins(University of Lille)

pp. 82-102

Abstract

Heidegger's concept of phenomenology is inextricably bound up with his understanding of ontology. "Only as phenomenology, is ontology possible" (BT, 60/35). His understanding of ontology is guided by the insight that the question concerning its theme, Being (Sein), "has today been forgotten" (BT, 21 /2). It has been forgotten in the sense that Being is understood, without more ado, as the most universal, undefinable, and self-evident concept.
