Descrição
Why read Heidegger? Why can his thought, marked in an irremissible way by the rectorate during the Nazi government, be fruitful for 21st century geography, in its latent need for diversity and multiplicity? This paper’s argument starts from the discussion of his adherence to National Socialism, his expectations and frustration, identifying in this experience a decisive moment in the direction that his thought takes which was conventionally called Kehre – turning point. “Heidegger’s error” is weighed in the light of the effect produced in his thinking, which leads him to language in the expectation of another time of Being: a future that cannot be sought, only prepared. This is the path of serenity and passivity, while radicalizing the criticism of the modern subject and recognizing the strength of historical structures in the epochal constitution. It is a thought still being shaped, which promotes a less pretentious Geography, that pays attention to the Earth, language and multiplicity, making way for the place and the poetic dwelling.||Por que ler Heidegger? Por que seu pensamento, marcado de forma irremissível pelo reitorado durante o governo nazista, pode ser fecundo para a Geografia do século XXI, em sua necessidade latente de diversidade e multiplicidade? O argumento do artigo parte da discussão de sua adesão ao nacional-socialismo, suas expectativas e frustração, identificando nesta experiência momento decisivo na direção que seu pensamento toma no que se convencionou chamar de Kehre – viragem. O “erro de Heidegger” é ponderado à luz do efeito produzido em seu pensamento, o que o conduz à linguagem na expectativa de uma outra época do Ser: um futuro que não pode ser buscado, apenas preparado. Este é o caminho da serenidade e da passividade, ao mesmo tempo em que radicaliza a crítica ao sujeito moderno e reconhece a força das estruturas históricas na constituição epocal. Trata-se de um pensamento a caminho, que fomenta uma Geografia menos pretensiosa que dá atenção à Terra, à linguagem e à multiplicidade, abrindo caminho para o lugar e o habitar poético.
