Sample text
More precisely, it is the capacity of metaphysics, as a way of thinking and speaking, to cover over by ossifying the original event of the truth [or: truing] of beyng, which “is and remains my question and my sole question, for it quali¤es as the most singular question” (GA 65, 10; cf. 11 But there is clearly nothing simple, no easy resolution in this remark. Heidegger is at least clear about the task he has set himself as a necessary accomplishment; and he concedes that it is at best preliminary with respect to the full needs which he will outline, needs which he argues far outstrip what he believes can be accomplished in this transitional age: “The truth of beyng does not let itself be said with the customary language which today is ever more widely used abused and destroyed by talking.
Translation mine. We have already seen that what Heidegger means by “be-ing-historical thinking” will occur otherwise than metaphysical thinking, insofar as the former no longer is oriented primarily by a thinking of being in terms of a most common, transcendent, timeless, or highest being. As we shall see below, be-ing historical thinking means the eventuation of a thinking whose orientation is primarily to be-ing itself rather than primarily to beings. 10. , Vallega, Vallega-Neu, Brogan, Emad, Maly, von Herrmann) stress the importance of the “passage-character” of this thinking, indicated by Heidegger’s italicizing the ending in the word Gedanken-gang, which appears immediately following the sentences cited above.
However, as thinking experiences itself as being drawn back out of everyday familiarity into the question of being that, for example, an experience of death can elicit, thinking draws/is drawn back into the ungrounding ground, the not-character of be-ing, the abyssal question in which da-sein originally emerges. Be-ing itself thus draws thinking back into the very occurring of being-in-question that familiarity covers over. Transitional thinking of be-ing occurs then as what might be called an oscillation of draws toward and away from the potentially fascinating power of beings, toward and away from its own abyssal occurrence.
