Abstract

Heidegger's thought is usually divided into two parts. The famous turning of Heidegger occurs after his unfinished work of Being and Time. While the early Heidegger tried to transcend to Being through the existential analysis of the structure of Dasein, the late Heidegger decides to move from Being towards Dasein. Most of the Heidegger scholars have interpreted his thought based on their own tendency in taking each period of his thinking as the most fundamental one. Referring to the hermeneutical circle, this article tries to demonstrate that these two sections are supplementary. The hermeneutical circle not only governs the body of his works, but also determines the orientation of Heidegger's thought. The nothingness, which determines itself as the death of Dasein in the early Heidegger, appears as the concealment of Being in the late Heidegger through a hermeneutical supplementary process. In this way, the opening of Dasein in the early Heidegger, which is the result of the destruction of metaphysics, turns into the opening of Being in Erignis and the thrownness of Dasein in the early works wait for the opening of Being in order to dwell in it.
