Abstract

This reflection presents Heidegger's 1924 lecture on true being in Aristotle. In an exegetical and hermeneutical-philosophical exercise, it seeks to explain its motives, tendencies and guiding thread and intends to capture and bring to light the presuppositions of its positions. The aim is to apprehend and understand the condition of possibility of such a position and its implications. First, it analyzes the starting points of Heidegger's consideration: truth, knowledge, science. Then, it highlights his reflections on the challenge of interpretation and the phenomenological-hermeneutic method. Then, it pursues the disposition of the exposition in its triple articulation. The course of the lecture passes through three stations: (a) judgment and truth; (b) true being and being-there; (c) modes of true being. The search for the essence of truth that begins with adequacy tends to find its end in the consideration of the relationship between the human being and the being as such. However, this dimension of the question of the essence of truth remains, in the conference, not explicitly reached.
