It’s the beginning of the Spring 2010 semester and the Student Philosophy Society is back in full swing. This semester, CSUN Philosophy major Alberto Mendoza continues to serve as the SPS President and already has many exciting ideas for future meetings. You’ll definitely want to check back here often so you don’t miss out on anything!
For this semester’s first meeting, we’ll be discussing Heidegger’s distinction between World and the Intraworldly. Our very own Alvin Mayorga will begin the meeting with a presentation on this topic and then we’ll have time for some discussion and questions.
What shall be explored (briefly) is the ontological structure of the human Dasein and the relationship which this being has to its surrounding environment as it is Being-in the world as such. Also, although many of Heidegger’s concepts can initially seem confusing and complicated, during this meeting you can count on these concepts being presented in a manner as clear and as accessible as possible.
| Topic: | Heidegger’s distinction between World and the Intraworldly |
| Date: | Monday, February 1, 2010 |
| Time: | 5pm – 6:15pm |
| Place: | Sierra Tower 503 (the philosophy library/study room on the fifth floor) |
Because Martin Heidegger’s philosophy is often recognized as being groundbreaking, this semester we hope to have a number of subsequent discussions about his philosophical ideas in particular, and about existentialist phenomenology more generally. Who knows? You may just find these topics and different approaches to philosophy interesting and refreshing. Or…maybe not. Perhaps you’ll find it’s interesting and yet quite unrefreshing. Guess there’s only one way to find out, huh? You’ll just have to come to our first meeting and find out for yourself!
What’s that? You wish you could watch some videos of Heidegger that are narrated in German? Done!:
