Abstract

Doubtless the major transformation that humanity has experienced until now, is the transit from myth to logos. Heraclit stands out as the thinker of logos. The radical intuition that he has is that cosmos is entirely logos, what, we may say, anticipates the principle of sufficient reason of Leibniz. We follow here the way how Heidegger understands logos, taking distance, at the same time, especially from Leibniz, in so far being can be conceived as logos, ratio, reason or foundament, while he himself lacks of foundament, and therefore is abyss.
