LANGUAGE IN HEIDEGGER AND THE YOUTH LOGOS

Abstract

Language as a distinctive feature of man in the world has always been among the biggest issues in Education. Especially with regard to the formation of future generations, as an objective instrument of a discourse that legitimizes or as recognition of a subjectivity that symbolizes the environment in which they live from the internal imagination. From the creative logos represented in mythological discourse to the modern technique of virtuality, historical development requires human understanding to signify reality. And in this existential movement, language sometimes appears as a pharmakon that dialogues, and sometimes imposes universal concepts that prevent questioning. The purpose of this work is to recover the place of the young person in the dialogue that emerges within the school in light of the understanding of logos appropriation in Heidegger. Starting from a bibliographical rereading that presents human discourse as a means of explaining the world and man, based on rationality, I seek to listen to high school students about existence. With the question: Who are young people and what are the current challenges in educating them? In this work, I intend to take the place of language as a comprehensive movement and presence that signifies learning, assuming the relationship as a project that reveals meaning and the other in the duality between existence and essence: foundations of living in the world with freedom and responsibility.
