Habitar, (ser-en) el mundo

Abstract

Through the thought of Heidegger, it is reviewed the question about the sense of inhabiting the world, starting with having yourself and the familiarization that human have with things. There for, inhabiting is the way that concerns the human being with the world, that is, the closeness and familiarity with things that they return to themselves; it is a situation in which human being moves around the world of meanings and values. The relationship of utility of the things shows the structure of being-in-world as a way of being of the human being. Heidegger points out another type of relationship between human being and being, that is of mutual appropriation, here, the human being rediscovers his essence and live in it, being the abode of being. Also, thanks to closeness with things, the human being exists poetically. So, to say men means a residence that opens a place to things, it is let inhabit which in turn give home to the residence of human being. In this sense, home is something fundamental, because inhabiting is being in the world, and it is the cure for yourself and the world.
