Abstract

This study explores the roots of Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenology. First, the attempt is made to address the uniquely hermeneutic manner by which Heidegger grounds the self-showing of the "things themselves" in the dynamic of being's self-concealment. Second, the essay outlines the radicalization of Heidegger's concept of phenomenology as occurring through a dialogue with, and yet in contrast to, his mentor, Edmund Husserl.
