In volume I, Kleinberg-Levin interprets five key words in
Heidegger's project. In this second volume, he illuminates their
significance for Heidegger's phenomenology of perception and his
philosophy of history. At stake is the possibility of a new
experience and understanding of being. Taking us beyond the
metaphysical understanding of being, Heidegger proposes to
introduce a new key word Seyn (beyng). Beyng is the
Da-sein-appropriating event in which a clearing occurs as an open
dimension for the time-space interplay of concealment and
unconcealment, an interplay within which beings are experienced in
regard to the various modes and inflections of presence and absence
that the grammar of temporalities articulates. Concentrating on the
appropriation of seeing and hearing as capacities and capabilities
bearing promising potentialities that could be developed,
Kleinberg-Levin examines seeing and hearing in the context of
Heidegger's critique of the history of metaphysics, wherein vision
has served as paradigm for knowledge, truth, and reality. He shows
that, in Heidegger's philosophy of history, seeing and hearing are
given a role in the transformation of the character of humanity,
redeeming their own inherent potential. Perceptual experience has
undergone accelerating processes of deformation and reification,
encouraging a disposition that makes it serve technological and
technocratic imperatives; but we might begin to redeem the
promising potential in seeing and hearing, turning their damaged
and dehumanized character, and their violence, towards the creation
of a new planetary existence-what Heidegger imagines through the
topology of the fourfold: earth and sky, mortals and the gods who
embody our ideals. In this project, we are put in question by a
responsibility that summons us, in our seeing and hearing, to the
response-abilities most befitting our historically shared sense of
an achieved humanity.
