ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book describes the difficulties of navigating Martin Heidegger’s philosophy. Driven by the desire of turning the Heideggerian archipelago into a more hospitable place, the book draws an original naval map which might help readers find their bearings in such a wild place. It addresses the first concern by arguing that, given Heidegger’s understanding of entities, Being, and their ontological difference, any attempt to speak and think about Being forces him to face all sorts of different paradoxes. By means of paraconsistent logic, inconsistent mereology, and inconsistent dependence relations, the book shows that Heidegger’s philosophy is able to welcome all the contradictions in question without falling into logical triviality. Heidegger requires an active engagement with his work, a work which is in constant need of explanations, clarifications, and interpretation.
