Sein und „Sein“

This investigation on the ontology of Martin Heidegger's “Being and Time” leads to the discovery of the fundamental difference, i.e., the double meaning of Being. In the context of the analytics of human existence, José Pedro Cornejo based on the ontological difference tries to work on the concept of possibility as meaning and as ability, which leads to the determination of the understanding of Being as time and as temporalization, which ultimately show up as a horizon of meaning (being) and as finite existence ("being"). This fundamental difference is the basic structure that enables human existence as the unfolding of the meaning of its own world.
