L’οἰκολογία originaria. Ripensare l’Ereignis verso un nuovo abitare

This paper endeavors to explore the potential development of an ecology and an ethics tailored to the contemporary technological era, drawing upon Heidegger’s notion of Ereignis (Event). In pursuit of this objective, the study critically examines the alterations introduced by Heidegger’s work Beitrage zur Philosophie (Vom Ereignis) within the framework of his preceding ontological ideas and the interplay between Sein (Being) and Dasein (Existence). Furthermore, the paper engages with Heidegger’s perspective on the history of metaphysics and the question of technology, with an aim towards elucidating the possibility of a “new beginning” in philosophical thinking. The conceptual framework that emerges from this exploration forms the basis for a novel post-metaphysical understanding of the world, shedding light on an alternative mode of human-thing relations, distinct from the prevailing instrumentalism inherent in the technological age.
