Abstract

The aim of this paper is to discuss the relationship between ethics and ontology in the thought of Martin Heidegger. To this purpose, we analyze excerpts, taken from Being and Time and Letter on “Humanism”, in which the author deals with this relationship. We discuss also with Hodge about her interpretations of this relationship. We conclude that, despite his having given the primacy to the issue of being, this does not mean that his ideas remained stuck to the traditional hierarchy between ontology and ethics.
