Abstract:
The lecture will introduce the topic of the symposium in four steps. In a critical diagnosis of our time, the scientistic and medial deprivation of the life-world reality is first critically pointed out. Reality is not present or ‘at hand’ (vorhanden) as an object, it is not constructed, but it must be won. In the relationship to reality, an entrance to the world opens up as a horizson (Husserl), as a bodily situational space (Merleau-Ponty), as an existential temporal and local orientation (Heidegger), and as the One in Many (Nietzsche, Fink). From a pedagogical perspective, the relationship to the world, the openness to the world and the sharing of the world are pointed out as moments of an experience of Bildung. Finally, with Fink a phenomenological perspective on the relationship between reality, worldliness and digital technology is offered.
