Single Idea 22211

[filed under theme 7. Existence / A. Nature of Existence / 3. Being / h. Dasein (being human) ]

Full Idea

We are left with the transcendence of the thing over against the perception of it, ...and thus a basic and essential difference arises between Being as Experience and Being as Thing.

Gist of Idea

As a thing and its perception are separated, two modes of Being emerge

Source

Edmund Husserl (Ideas: intro to pure phenomenology [1913], II.2.042)

Book Ref

A Reaction

I'm thinking that this is not just the germ of Heidegger's concept of Da-sein, but it actually IS his concept, without the label. Husserl had said that he hoped to reveal a new region of Being.
