PHIL 373 Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Dasein, Martin Heidegger, Gestell
Document Summary
Nicha wanted thinking to not just be rule following. Heidegger is not opposed to science and technology, he is opposed to the reach of it and the fact that it is the only way of thinking intelligibly. Heidegger thinks science is an interpretation of the world, one way of thinking a(cid:271)out the (cid:449)orld, should(cid:374)"t (cid:271)e the o(cid:374)ly (cid:449)ay. How would human life be if all experiences were mediated by a screen. Our experience would become one dimensional, shallow. Heidegger says our thi(cid:374)ki(cid:374)g is i(cid:374) this (cid:272)o(cid:374)ditio(cid:374) a(cid:374)d (cid:449)e do(cid:374)"t. Heidegger wants to pose the question of being in a new way: phenomological ontology rather than metaphysical. Nicha: cultural physician: niallism: belief in nothing. We do(cid:374)"t really feel at ho(cid:373)e i(cid:374) this (cid:449)orld. We are not yet capable of thinking. Science does not think: we are not thinking in the preeminent sense, there is a higher way of thinking than science.
