The article deals with some aspects of Heidegger’s essay Building Dwelling Thinking in a new and more per formative way. It explores the meaning of two common things from the author’s own life world/Lebenswelt (a small ball he uses in psychotherapy and his stethoscope he uses as a medical doctor). Both things create living relationships between human beings, things and their environment. Things constructed by humans (such as bridges, balls and stethoscopes) take an active part in a never ending performance of being. The power of such things to create new and intense behavioural, perceptual and aesthetic experience was (among other themes) approached within the performance Aspects of Text which took place on October 29, 2012 in the theatre “Na zábradlí“ in Prague and focused on the above mentioned text of M. Heidegger.

The article concerns Things, with reference to Aristotle and Heidegger. Yielding a precise concept of a thing or its scope via such contextualization is not, however, the most important aspect of this work. The most important thing - in the authoress' original research - is to investigate the relation of a human being to things, his being among things and his constant transcending the things.

The article analyzes Heidegger’s view on φύσις and αλήθεια. It focuses primarily on explicating the meaning of the ancient term “λήθη”. There follows and attempt to define the philosophical idea of αλήθεια. Heidegger seeks the sense of this word in myth and he is concerned with the relevance of the thought of Heraclitus and Parmenides. The metaphor of fire is at the center of his philosophical interpretation of the world. It reveals the mystery of Being because this is a struggle to show things.

In his influential series of lectures on Nietzsche in the 1930s and 1940s, Heidegger claimed that Nietzsche had failed to escape metaphysical thinking and had remained a metaphysician despite his own self-understanding. At the centre of Heidegger’s charge is his interpretation of Nietzsche’s doctrine of “the will to power.” The argument in this paper is that Heidegger has misinterpreted what Nietzsche means by a “philosophy of the future,” and that Nietzsche’s revolution in philosophy is, somewhat ironically, much closer to Heidegger’s own attempt to recover the question of the meaning of being.

In this paper we reconstruct Heidegger’s approach to the problem of boredom. Based on his lectures entitled The Concept of Time, we conclude that boredom is the result of an improper understanding of time – understanding it in physical categories, where it is a measurable and ever-draining “container”. We then reverse the direction of our inquiry and look into the meticulous analysis of boredom in The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics. By specifying three kinds of boredom and its two structural moments – being held in limbo and emptying – we try to get closer to properly understanding the temporality of Dasein.

In Heidegger's philosophical writings on science the problematic of science occupies an important place. There are several periods in Heidegger's articulating this problem. Among the most important are the 1930s, especially his lecture 'Modern Mathematical Natural Science', which is seen by the author of the article as one of the most fundamental Heidegger's works. Divided into two main parts it examines the relationship between the mathematical and metaphysics as well as Descartes' relationship to metaphysics. In his lecture Heidegger showed himself as an excellent analytical philosopher, whose focus is not on historical-philosophical reception of modern natural science (mainly of Descartes' theory), but on an original picture of the rise of modern science and its links with the origins of modern metaphysics as a metaphysics of subjectivity. For Heidegger understanding modern science means also a deep philosophical insight into Descartes' 'Rules for the Direction of Our Native Intelligence'. And with this we have but to agree.

This article deals with the issues of museum communication and interpretation of museum exhibits in a philosophical and cultural context. As an example, it considers two different ways of presenting palaeontological material – specifically, the skeleton of southern mammoth – revealing differences in how the semantic content is interpreted. The first method – the traditional approach of assembling the skeleton – gives a “world picture” of a certain era, as it appears to a palaeontologist. The second approach presents the skeleton in a “sandbox”, representing how it was found during excavations, such that viewers deal not with the interpreted “ready-made” material, but with the contemporary experienced reality – the “life-world”, the “raw” source material. This allows visitors to realize their own creative potential and to recreate the nature of the Pleistocene epoch in their imagination. Thus, through the mutual correlation of the roles exhibition’s author and of the visitor as an interpreter, the semantic field of museum communication expands. In Heidegger’s conception, “hides the world rather than explains it, while the “life world” represents it as it is.

The article analyses the Heidegger works with regard to their significance for phenomenology of space. Heidegger outlined certain concepts for pregeometric meaning of space. At the same time, however, by means of his works in their entirety, he has reached beyond the phenomenological issue of source experience of spatiality, thus creating an entirely new philosophy of space. The issue of space is there in the centre of his philosophy of being. On the one hand, the thinking of the truth of being determines the space anew, whilst on the other, space becomes of essence for a new non-metaphysical way of speaking about being. The present article shows in what a way Heidegger radically changed the philosophical thinking about space. In our contemporary times, physical sciences have assumed revolutionary approaches in their concepts of time and space. So has philosophy, and completely independently so. Heidegger has reached beyond the Cartesian stretch or extent, as well as beyond the Kantian notion of an a-priori form of insight into things.

Martin Heidegger is commonly considered related to Czeslaw Milosz. The author draws conclusions from this assumption. Reading 'The World' referring to Heidegger's 'Source of a Piece of Art', he exposes an ironic tension between the poems on faith, hope and love on the one hand and the poems on pieces of art on the other. They both are contradictory. Lyrical reflections deny the philosopher's thought, while 'ekfrases' come close to Heidegger's 'Source..' - a major 20th-century work studying truth-art relations. Yet, what brings Milosz's poetry close to Heidegger's philosophy is the conflict within the poem.

The aim of this essay is tho show the source of the knowledge of 'myself'. How do we know ourselves? The negative answer sounds: we do not know that on the basis of private experience. The way to know our 'own' psychological content runs round about: it goes through the other people. To know that I think, feel pain, or hope we have to know that other people think, feel pain, or hope. The place we find ourselves is the place of finding others. The source of understanding what is thinking, feeling - is primitive reactions, which include the other people as well.

Gumbrecht’s Heidegger-inspired book, Production of Presence, provides valuable tools for resolving issues in everyday aesthetics. Gumbrecht distinguishes between “presence cultures” and “interpretation cultures.” (Gumbrecht 2004) We live in an interpretation culture, and yet even in our culture there are presence effects. Gumbrecht understands aesthetic experience in terms of the idea of presence. His paradigms are great works of art and great athletic events, all of which take us away from the everyday. I argue that his theory can be adapted, ironically, to everyday aesthetics, in particular to the experience of taking a walk. Much of what we experience aesthetically while taking a walk is experienced in the mode of silence. But, as Gumbrecht observes, there is an oscillation between presence effects and interpretation effects in aesthetic experience. I see that oscillation as something more like dialectic. I also bring Plato’s theory of beauty and Danto’s theory of the art world into this discussion.

The study deals with the Hungarian writer Miklós Mészöly who, in his essays or comments on literary works, often pursues the dilemma of silence, pause or breaking off. The author of this study attempts to outline the relations of Meszöly's works (belonging to the period of the 'turn of the narration' in Hungarian literature, and late modernism to postmodernism) with contemporary philosophical thought, accenting chiefly two notions from his works by which these relations are a priori expressed. The first of these notions is disposition (the term used in Hungarian literature is 'közerzet' , in Heidegger's theory 'Befindlichkeit' ), as a content of everything that is perceived by an individual limited to particular time of existence - on the different levels of the perception and knowledge - and that is a part of his inner world. The second term is the ontological prose - which, according to the author, is an expression/translation of disposition into the mode of narration. In the name of the authentic literature, omnipotence of the language is infirmed by silence, elision or pause - ambivalence. The variants of the literary pausing/silence can be found throughout Meszöly's life work on the poetic plane they are expressed by the several types of figures of silence - but there is a certain shift in the conception of these: 1. the first period (1950s- beginning of 1970s) -in parallel with the other textual techniques - they emphasize the ambivalence by the language of the given order and thus signalize the limits of language and knowledge, 2. the second period (from the middle 1970s) - not the ambivalence or relativity of interpretation of the world is expressed but the disrupted hierarchy, in which, among the equalized signs, the ambivalence is not visible.

In Martin Heidegger's philosophy human life is not defined essentially, on the contrary it is contingent. This means that it does not count among numerous existing entities, but is Dasein, ie. a searching and undetermined form of being. As such it is limited in time and space, and it strives towards something beyond its current condition. Although Dasein perceives itself mainly by remembrance of its past, it also permanently transcends itself. Thereby it loses its past. Forgetting about oneself is the form of life characteristic for Dasein. It is also characteristic for Dasein to realise that it is mortal, and that by reaching out to the future it reaches out to death. It its elusiveness and incessant anticipation Dasein confronts its own non-existence in at least two ways. Forgetting obliterates its past identity, anticipation brings it to ultimate termination. The author surmises that this double confrontation with non-existence can breed a sense of ecstasy.

The contribution tackles certain themes in Kierkegaard’s oeuvre, which exert more or less direct influence on Heideggers’s phenomenology. The analysis is followed by a more general reflection on the tense relationship between religious thought and philosophy.

The still growing distance from the classics of the 20th century philosophy (Wittgenstein, Heidegger) enables us to approach their universe of meanings with humbleness, and be still more aware of the problematic and risky character of our speaking of their legacy. This is, however, not a ground not so speak about them at all; on the contrary, it is a challenge to work systematically on the development of Slovak philosophical terminology. Concerning Wittgenstein and Heidegger, there are two main streams of developing a Non-German, national philosophical terminology (the following considerations relate to Heidegger alone): the stream based on translation, and that of developing our own national philosophy, systematically as well as historically. An example of the application of the latter is the author's articulation of the basis of reflecting ontologically the world and the place of humans in it. He calls this kind of reflecting 'perichronosophy', its subject being 'perichrony' (timelessness, atemporality) and its particular forms 'perichronemas'.

First of all, the assumptions underlying the world view that belongs to the fascist thought were reconstructed, mainly with respect to some programmatic pronouncements by Benito Mussolini. Then, the Fichtean notions of the self, of knowledge, person, state, and education were compared with Heidegger's concepts of existence, understanding, and apprehension, also with the idea of 'Dasein'. This comparison served to work out - against a philosophical as well as historical background - a radical or even extreme conception of autonomy. Fascism was taken at the same time as a way to set up a durable order of legal, political, and economic power. At the end, there was proposed an answer to the question of the extent to which a philosophically grounded notion of autonomy - as it can be seen in Fichte and Heidegger - shows some features characteristic of the fascist attitude.

The paper deals with the possible parallels between Heidegger's aesthetic thinking and aesthetics of the Bauhaus art and design. The authors examine to what extent could philosophy of given period interfere with the development of modern art, while exploring and analysing different theses of theorists who have expressed on given subject. Heidegger wrote three key texts (Das Ding 1950, Bauen, Wohnen, Denken 1951, Die Frage nach der Technik 1954), which embraced the theory of design. The authors of the paper examine to what extent Heidegger theses could have an impact on contemporary product design.

The world of everyday life is a central concept in Husserl's philosophy. Its origins are not clear, however. It is often claimed that Husserl proposed the concept of 'Lebenswelt' rather unexpectedly (in 1936) and at the cost of destroying the continuity of his thought as a reaction to the growing popularity of the concept of 'Dasein' that had been introduced by Heidegger in the 'Being and time' (in 1927). The author finds this interpretation too simple and superficial. In his opinion problems subsumed under the notion of 'Lebenswelt' had been present in Husserl's writings at least twenty years before the name was first used. Husserl's unpublished manuscripts, books and lectures often referred to problems that directly or indirectly hinged on the idea of 'Lebenswelt'. Taking all of this into account plus the fact that 'Lebenswelt' is a private and individual experience for every human being, it is clear that we should accept as a logical possibility that different experiences of the world can be incommesurable, and their truth, though it appears unshaken to those who experience it directly, may in fact be no more that a sum of highly relativised visions of the world. But the author does not find this difficulty insurmountable.

This essay is about the significance of the body for dwelling. Considering the body implies considering a concrete body, i.e. asking for the experiences embedded in it. Consequently, the body in consideration is, for example, gendered. The topic of dwelling takes Martin Heidegger’s work on the hand as the point of departure and uses philosophical anthropology and Jacques Derrida’s comments on Heidegger as inspiration to suggest that the relationship between the hand and thinking implies asking whose hands build places of dwelling. When dwelling is related to the body, we must also consider what concrete body is involved in building and dwelling.
