From the Aporia of the Time and the Soul to the Temporality of Dasein
Main Article Content
Abstract
The subject of the present paper is Heidegger’s reception and radicalization
of Aristotle’s aporia of time and soul in the texts of the period
known as the phenomenological decade. The question (at the end of Physica
D 14) about whether there would be time without the existence of soul leads
to a difficult aporia which remains unanswered in the corpus aristotelicum.
Nevertheless, Heidegger believes that this aporetical approach shows that
Aristotle already sensed (though he did not see with absolute clarity) that Dasein
itself is to be considered fundamentally as time. Since time is the basic
determination of human existence, Dasein would be impossible without time.
In other words, there would not be a Dasein without time.
