This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.
This Core Concept video focuses on the introduction to Martin Heidegger's early work Being and Time, specifically on his discussion in section 7 of the concept of phenomenology. He had just earlier discussed the concepts of phenomenon and logos

wherever and on whatever topic i happen to stumble upon, you're always there with a video ready! haha.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Oh, there's plenty of gaps!

[@mdl13]

Heidegger's philosophy is so stunning, it really brings about a freshness to life. Thanks for your teaching

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're welcome!

[@josephtucker4486]

Really enjoying the videos, Dr Sadler. I recently started the Stambaugh translation. Finished chapters one and two of the introduction and started in on Division One. Reading very slowly, deliberately. Your videos are serving as a wonderful supplement to my reading. Thanks!

[@josephtucker4486]

Specifically, your guidance through the "Heideggerian Greek" is particularly helpful, especially for those of us who are only slightly familiar with Ancient Greek but haven't formally studied it.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Glad they're useful for you!

I found watching and listening to Professor Thorsby's narrative on phenomenology, useful. I got most of my formative education in the 1960's. That shaped me and gave me a personal understanding which I've then applied and developed across personal life experience; while memory of what educated me, has fallen away pretty completely. So its helpful to have that earlier educational experience, refreshed. At the same time it leaves me conflicted. It seems to me there are two broad streams of understanding in play: the one attaching to elite settings, such as universities; the other out on the street, as it were. It does then strike me that phenomenology is an activity out on the street, as well as an activity of scholastic reflection. That may come from earlier education being sociological, where Schutz rather than Husserl was the referred to figure. I have found the idea of philosophising as an activity of active meaning making intrinsic to being human, to be useful in supporting autistically characterised young people educationally; in seeking to experience such individuals holistically and non-reductively, in the way that Carl Rogers might, I found it helpful to bend myself to asking and answering the question, "what active meaning making or philosophising, is mediating the being and person" of this and that individual. If you give over to the hermeneutic idea radically, you might consider that an autistically characterised individual is spinning up a being from "first things" that do not figure in the constituting or mediating processes in play in a contextualising collective; where I find the example of Neitzche (and others) to lend credence to that idea (of singularity in the becoming of made meaning). Again, grateful that resource such as this videoed talk/lecture, are freely available online; much appreciated.

Get rid of that oversimplistic dichotomy of elite and street, and realize that there’s many versions and interpretations of phenomenology and your problem likely goes away

[@USMCSurvivalist]

I’ve taken two courses in Heidegger, and listened to your talk. Still no idea…

[@GregoryBSadler]

That’s unfortunate. No idea why you’re complaining here though

[@MrJaffaCakie]

Hi Dr Sadler, excellent video as always. Can I ask, have you ever read Rinrigaku by the Japanese philosopher Watsuji Tetsuhiro? It is considered the eastern critique of being and time however I have been finding it far more difficult to understand so any input you have on it would be fascinating, I apologise for this line of questioning I am sure you get it often and are quite fed up with it.

[@GregoryBSadler]

I have not read it, no

[@MrJaffaCakie]

Ah okay, thank you for replying! sorry again.

[@landonboone7332]

Dr Sadler, would it be out of the question to one day to a live ZOOM QandA on philosophy for those of us who love your work?

[@GregoryBSadler]

I already do those monthly for Patreon supporters. They’re called Philosophy Chats

[@yousefhatlani]

Hello Dr. Sadler, are there any specific texts or anthologies either by or on Husserl that you would recommend? Thank you as always for your incredible body of work. 🙌

[@GregoryBSadler]

This is about Heidegger. Glad you enjoy the videos

[@alanbelem3763]

Great vídeo, Doc. Heidegger is really hard to comprehend sometimes

[@GregoryBSadler]

Hahaha! Yes, for all of us!

Which translation of the book do you recommend?

Man... This is complex...I think it's the first time I find a philosophical concept that I feel I'm not able to grasp how to apply it in life... 😬

[@GregoryBSadler]

There's a lot in philosophy that's complex

[@mitchellkato1436]

Phenomenology is the core understanding of "Being and Time". Here Being is expounded as "Truth and Falsehood". The dichotomy becomes united. Again, Truth and False becomes One. And the Time tells the story of Being.

How is that different than the "visible vs intelligible" of plato? How is it that logos can include anything other than the intelligible?

[@GregoryBSadler]

What's the "that" you're asking about?

[@charliespider7598]

@@GregoryBSadler "That"= the difference between the "what" and the "how"

[@GregoryBSadler]

@@charliespider7598 So you're asking how a difference between the what and the how is different from the visible and the intelligible?

[@charliespider7598]

@@GregoryBSadler Yes. I understand the "visible" as equivalent to the "what" and the "intelligible" to the "how"

I have been disappointed by obscure philosophy that the more words speak the less clear it gets. Maybe a question or concrete example will give me some guidance. My question is, if poetry is doing some sort of phenomenology? To be more precise on what style of poetry, the style that is focus more on being descriptive by paying a rigorous amount of attention to one thing from various perspectives, the more you observe the more you uncover things that go un notice but add authenticity to the thing. Example instead of just saying "a glass of water", you might describe the scratches the glass of water has revealing that is been used.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Sure, that kind of poetry might have something in common with phenomenology. Gotta say, if you're really "disappointed by obscure philosophy", and you want to stick with that perspective (which is a choice), you're going to have a rough time with most philosophy or theory at all, and with Heidegger especially

[@themarchcreates2490]

@@GregoryBSadler The disappointment might have been trigger by the Stoics since they warned for wordy stuff. Either way is good to be prepare for various philosophies and arguments.
