What is Heidegger's philosophy

Martin Heidegger is one of the largest philosophers of the XX century. The world popularity to Martin was brought by his work "Life and Time" (1927) and also communications with Nazis which the young philosopher joined at once after occupation of the power by Hitler.

Martin Heidegger's philosophy has a peculiar character, it is difficult for perception by people with simple type of thinking. The main thought of the philosopher consists in the following: the mind of the person and his acts are arranged not to them, that is life precedes consciousness. Before an act – will which or is or it is absent, and earlier thoughts rises clarity or ambiguity of about what this thought. The scope appears before everything, on it there is a person in the history. The stage on which every time appears the person is created not by it. And kind of it opened the heart, hearing, a look, kind of was not given to a thought, a rush, entreaty of gratitude, art in work, he always at first sees himself in a circle not secret which was already carried out. Therefore the nepotayennost called the person on ways of his disclosure proportional to it. According to Heidegger, the nepotayennost is the truth not in the sense of the correct judgment, and in initial point of the shown life. In other words, at first there was a life but only then consciousness, that is inspiration with which consciousness begins is created by life of the person where life corresponds to light presence. The human thought which is keeping up or not keeping up with reasons about superiority of life sees clarity or ambiguity of the business. The person hurries to grab a subject, losing sight of the clarity which allowed to see this subject. And the more light, the more all eyes are attracted to a subject. And life is not a subject, it before light. Therefore the inspiration moments are also life in truer meaning, than a thing as they are not subject to the person. The clarity either is given, or is not present. The person strives for clarity, in it and there is a rescue of a thought. To sum up the results of philosophical thought of Heidegger it would be inappropriate. Its voice is heard also in the 21st century as a reminder that the equipment including receptions of "philosophical information" is not philosophy yet.
