Abstract

REIS, Róbson Ramos dos. The unfastened beast. Nat. hum. [online]. 1999, vol.1, n.2, pp. 265-282. ISSN 1517-2430.

In this paper the author examines Heidegger's account of science and technology, that is presented in Winter course of 1928 Introduction to Philosophy. The main examined thesis says that science and technology display the primordial impotence of human being. The concept of impotence is circumscribed by the concrete determination of transcendence of Dasein, to which negative determinations adds, yet, that resulting from the ontological interpretation of concept of game.

Keywords : Heidegger; Science; Technology.
