| Summary: | In this article, I elucidate the significance of Heidegger's "question of being" from a topological point of view by explaining the relationship between his thought of place and language. After exploring various hermeneutic strategies of reading Heidegger's oeuvre, I turn to Richard Capobianco's interpretation of Heidegger and critically engage with his idea of the experience of being itself as the "luminous self-showing of logos". In doing so, I explain the later turn from "truth" to "place" and articulate why logos needs to be conceived as the gathering site of the presencing of being. In arguing against the primacy of passive receptivity and active projection, I put forward the primacy of language as the topos and logos of being. In returning to the Capobianco-Sheehan debate, I conclude by explaining why Heidegger's place-related notions cannot be thought metaphorically. |
