Abstract

LOZA BALTAZAR, Alonzo. About 'the Augustine Event' as a Problem for the Understanding of Heidegger's Notion of Ereignis. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2018, n.54, pp.237-261. ISSN 0188-6649.  https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v0i54.802.

The paper deals with some thesis about the relationship between Augustine of Hippo and Heidegger. The aim is to discuss the notion of event as presented in the Beiträge zur Philosophie. Vom Ereignis. First, I shall show the more explicit relations between both thinkers highlighting some similarities. Then, I will raise the issues implied in Heidegger's reception of tradition (specifically Augustine, not only as a thinker but also as an event) and its consequences for the notion of event.
