Dasein, Personality, Inter-Subjectivity and Nucleus-Person (II). The Intellective Transcendental Structure After Heidegger, in Zubiri, Apel and Polo

Abstract

In this article Heidegger’s Dasain is analysed and characterised as ‘intelective relational principle’ of entities in general. This applies particularly when a factive belonging to a ‘transcendental entitative structrure’ is affirmed, though without stopping to exert intelectual functions. Such is the case for the philosophers Zubiri, Apel, and Polo, as the conceived their own notions of ‘personeity’, ‘intersubjectivity’ (or co-subjectivity) and nucleous-person, all these in close surrogacy to Heidegger’s anonymous man or authentic person. However, even if they shared this starting point, each of these philosophers kept conceiving in a different way the relational intellective intelligence, as they attributed a higher capacity of knowing oneself authentically as well as the other entities. In addition, the article aims to uphold the complementarity of each proposal, even though it leaves somehow the problem open to further discussion.
