Serenidade, o discurso festivo de Martin Heidegger: a questao da essencia da tecnica e do pensamento humano/Martin Heideggers Festrede Gelassenheit: die Frage nach dem Wesen der Technik und dem Denken des Menschen

The main objective of this article is to elucidate, from the discourse Gelassenheit, which occurred in 1955, problems that pervade Martin Heidegger's late philosophy, especially with regard to the issue of technique and human thought. To problematize the technique implies establishing the distinction between meditative thinking and calculating thinking, in addition to calling into question the position of the human being in the totality proper to the entity. The technique would therefore be a way of claiming the individual and a transformation of his essence, as well as one of the faces of the consummation of nihilism present in the current era.
