Anthropological Meaning of an Event in Fundamental Ontology M. Heidegger: Historical and Philosophical Analysis

Aim. Disclosure of the existential meaning of being as a unique event of human existence in the fundamental ontology of M. Heidegger as a result of the historical and philosophical analysis of his creative heritage. Methodology. Methods of dialectical and hermeneutic research are used in conjunction with comparative and historical-philosophical analysis of the non-classical specificity of the philosophical foundations of M. Heidegger’s fundamental ontology. Results. The fundamental principle of the existence of being in its anthropological implementation is the event (Ereignis), understood as a deep dimension of time, which in each of its moments manifests itself in the form of being-here or Dasein. The unique specificity of the phenomenon of man is fundamentally manifested through the temporality of his existence as the basis of his own authenticity acquired through it in a non-identical form of self-determination, thus allowing him to join the eternally fulfilling being. In this regard, a distinction is made between the classical understanding in the history of philosophy of being as Sein and the non-classical as Seyn, designated within the framework of the conceptual position in fundamental ontology by M. Heidegger as “being”, which is present, personifying an infinite number of various events fulfilled in interconnection with each other. The metaphysically static construction of the understanding of being as capital manifests itself in the form of a position that is overcome through an existential rethinking of the phenomenon of man and his figuratively idealized “I” as a receptacle of event-formed accomplishments in the form of being-here. Thus, an event, as a clearing of being, is declared to be the source of unlimited human freedom, which is built from his acceptance of his own mortality as a fundamental condition for the uniqueness of the emergence and acquisition of existential value of a meaningfully constructed self in the process of its boundless individuation. Research implications. The results of the study can be used as an expanded idea of the existential content of the human phenomenon and its various relationships with being for further in-depth theoretical understanding of the previously unexplored horizons of its unique self-actualization. In particular, the identified research results can contribute to the improvement of theoretical knowledge in the field of history of philosophy, ontology and anthropology, as well as their applied use in the field of existential psychotherapy.

Abstract

Aim. Disclosure of the existential meaning of being as a unique event of human existence in the fundamental ontology of M. Heidegger as a result of the historical and philosophical analysis of his creative heritage. Methodology. Methods of dialectical and hermeneutic research are used in conjunction with comparative and historical-philosophical analysis of the non-classical specificity of the philosophical foundations of M. Heidegger’s fundamental ontology. Results. The fundamental principle of the existence of being in its anthropological implementation is the event (Ereignis), understood as a deep dimension of time, which in each of its moments manifests itself in the form of being-here or Dasein. The unique specificity of the phenomenon of man is fundamentally manifested through the temporality of his existence as the basis of his own authenticity acquired through it in a non-identical form of self-determination, thus allowing him to join the eternally fulfilling being. In this regard, a distinction is made between the classical understanding in the history of philosophy of being as Sein and the non-classical as Seyn, designated within the framework of the conceptual position in fundamental ontology by M. Heidegger as “being”, which is present, personifying an infinite number of various events fulfilled in interconnection with each other. The metaphysically static construction of the understanding of being as capital manifests itself in the form of a position that is overcome through an existential rethinking of the phenomenon of man and his figuratively idealized “I” as a receptacle of event-formed accomplishments in the form of being-here. Thus, an event, as a clearing of being, is declared to be the source of unlimited human freedom, which is built from his acceptance of his own mortality as a fundamental condition for the uniqueness of the emergence and acquisition of existential value of a meaningfully constructed self in the process of its boundless individuation. Research implications. The results of the study can be used as an expanded idea of the existential content of the human phenomenon and its various relationships with being for further in-depth theoretical understanding of the previously unexplored horizons of its unique self-actualization. In particular, the identified research results can contribute to the improvement of theoretical knowledge in the field of history of philosophy, ontology and anthropology, as well as their applied use in the field of existential psychotherapy.
