Abstract

In this study, the metaphysics of “difference” in Heidegger’s ontology
of being will be evaluated. The evaluation is based on the “ontological
and metaphysical difference” as Heidegger has expressed as forgetting
the being and thinking in the Western thinking tradition. The issue of
difference will be addressed within the scope of the questions of “what is
difference in the ontology of being by Heidegger?”, “what is the ontological
and metaphysical meanings of “difference”?”, “what are the foundations
of difference metaphysics in the Western thought?”. In general, the
difference is not in the ethical and political sphere, but in the ontological
and metaphysical sphere in Heidegger. The ontology in Heidegger is the
historical thinking on the “meaning of the Being of beings” while the metaphysics
is ontotheological thinking on the “first principles of being”. For
this reason, the ontological and metaphysical analysis of the “difference”
will be made on the being, being and thinking in the ontological platform,
while it will be made on the first principles of the being and nothingness in
the metaphysical platform.

Keywords

Heidegger, being, difference, ontology, metaphysics, thinking, nothingness

MARTIN HEİDEGGER'İN VARLIK ONTOLOJİSİNDE FARK METAFİZİĞİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmada Heidegger’in varlık ontolojisinde, “fark”ın metafiziğinin
ne olduğu değerlendirilecektir. Değerlendirme Heidegger’in Batı
düşünme geleneğinde varlığın ve düşünmenin unutulması olarak ifade ettiği
“ontolojik ve metafizik fark” üzerinedir. Çalışmada “fark” problemi,
“Heidegger’in varlık ontolojisinde fark nedir?”, “fark”ın ontolojik ve metafizik
anlamı nedir?”, “bu ‘fark metafiziği’nin Batı düşüncesindeki temelleri
nelerdir?” soruları kapsamında ele alınacaktır. Genel olarak “fark”
Heidegger’de etik ve politik alana değil, ontolojik ve metafizik alana aittir.
Heidegger’de ontoloji, “varolanların varlığının anlamı” üzerine tarihsel
düşünmeyken; metafizik “varlığın ilk ilkelerinin ne olduğu” üzerine ontoteo-
lojik düşünmedir. Bu nedenle “fark”ın ontolojik ve metafizik analizi,
ontolojik düzlemde varlık, varolan ve düşünme; metafizik düzlemde ise
varlığın ilk ilkeleri ve hiçlik temelinde gerçekleştirilecektir.
