Abstract
In this paper I intend to provide an interpretation of the idea of ”phenomenology” specially in view of Heidegger's ”topological thinking”.This article is divided into four sections. In the first section, I begin with a brief introduction to Heidegger's ”topological thinking” or ”topology of Being” (Topologie des Seins), which represents his final fomulation of the question of Being. Then I try in the second section, by following Prof. Fr.-W. von Herrmann indication - the first and the second methodical principle of phenomenology - to clarify the methodological idea of ”phenomenology”. In order to elucidate my interpretation of the idea of phenomenology, I commit myself, in the third section, to clarify the path of phenomenological thinking in Husserl's ”Cartesian Meditations” and its forthcoming development in the ”Sixth Meditation” which is finished by Eugen Fink. In the final section I discuss briefly the problem of understanding which is dirived from my ”Emplacement” (Erörterung) of the idea of phenomenology.
