Heidegger and the Another Beginning in the Age of Technology
Abstract
The comparison of ecological thought with Heidegger’s philosophy is played out in the tension between the call for an alternative ecological ethos to the world of technology and the impossibility of an exit from it. Starting with the lecture The Question of Technology, the contribution aims to consider the way in which Heidegger, through his meditation on technology and art, conceives the overcoming (Verwindung) of technology and opens up to another (poetic/dichterisch) way of inhabiting the earth.
Keywords: Art, Ecology, Ereignis, Heidegger, Technology
