SIMESEN DE BIELKE, Martín. Concepts and foundations for a critic of Heidegger’s ‘ordinary time’. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2017, n.52, pp.277-318. ISSN 0188-6649.  https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v0i52.787.

A critique of Heidegger’s ‘vulgar concept of time’ aims to explain its basic features and fundamentally to highlight the aporias in the approach. Regarding the former, the emphasis on this article is placed on the “original” character of the vulgar concept of time; that is, its connection with the “world-time” and the nexus of foundations connecting both -vulgar time and world time- with the original temporality of Dasein. In relation to the latter (the aporias), the article discusses the limits of an attribution of the vulgar concept of time to Aristotle. The homologation of space and time is also discussed, as well as the connection between time and presence, both hypotheses taken as presuppositions in the traditional representation (philosophical and physical) of time as a measure/parameter of changes in general.

Keywords : time; temporality; space-time; Heidegger; Aristotle.
