Abstract

We propose in the following pages, make a critical reading and thoughtful about the seminar that Martin Heidegger gave between year 1929-1930 entitled "The fundamental concepts of metaphysics. World Finitud and loneliness". it would be a matter of reviewing the paragraphs around the problem of animality, paying special attention to the moment of structuring the difference with man, as far as he is defined as a configurator of the world (Weltbildend). We propose to read these enigmatic passages of Heidegger in the light (Lichtung) of the method proposed in Being and Time, specifically in paragraph six that revolves around the Destruktion of metaphysics, to which we ascribe as a transversal project of Heidegger's work But in the first instance it will be necessary to see to what extent the analysis of animality responds in Heidegger to a methodology of Destruktion. Perhaps it is that animality presents a limit to Destruktion? Does Heidegger's analysis of the animal respond to the demands of a destruction of metaphysics as set out in Being and Time and other texts? To what extent does Heidegger distance himself from the Aristotelian metaphysical axiomatic characterizing the difference between human and animal around the lack of logos? Could it be that Heidegger reproduces the human / animal difference from which he tries to separate himself and is trapped by the remains of a metaphysical understanding of the West? These will be some of the questions we will try to think about.
