Chapter 5: Being in as Such
In this chapter, Heidegger explores the concept of being in. He explains that Dasein, as a being with, maintains a separation between the observer and the observed. Dasein is born into a world, conditions that world, and is conditioned by it. Heidegger identifies two ways that being in is an active process: attunement and understanding. Attunement refers to Dasein's mood or mental state, which influences its possibilities for being. Understanding allows Dasein to deploy its capacity to understand the world. Heidegger also discusses the significance of language and discourse in interpretation and communication.
