Subject: The Temporality of Fear 


 
We know  by now that Jud doesn't like Heidegger. It may
be more profitable,  again,  to discuss the texts.

Heidegger said, 

"The  temporality of fear is a forgetting which awaits
and makes  present."

Sein u. Zeit, H. 342, trans. Macquarrie & Robinson.  

What did Heidegger mean by that? 

John Harvey
 
Jud:
Hi John,
Perhaps this was his way of signalling a feeling of pressure  or discomfort 
in his mesial temporal structures, and flagging-up the  expectation of one of 
his funny turns?
It is otherwise difficult to guess why any grown man would reify the mental  
activity of fear and forgetting into some bizarre quasi-object which is 
capable  of lurking around like Jinxy waiting for an opportunity to make itself  
present?
Surely nobody in their right mind would take this beginner's psychology  
rubbish seriously? The man was obviously an utter loony, but endowed with  an 
Asbergian genius for producing a phraseology which attracts the naive. In  other 
words, like Tony Blair and Bomber Bush over the Iraq affair, he was a good  
salesman of bad ideas.
 
Cheers,
 
Jud.
