The Question of Technique from the Perspective of Martin Heidegger

Heidegger's late work called "Thor Seminaries", given between 1966 and 1973, is configured as a study of the history of Philosophy in its most fundamental transformations. In it, Heidegger begins by showing the history of Metaphysics succinctly from its beginning to its end. The focus of this article is precisely to problematize the question of how and why the philosopher says that from the conception of the Western thought of Being as the entity of the being (the constant presence), a sense implicitly sent along two thousand and five hundred years of philosophical thought, Being itself has finally become hostage to the procedures of Modern Technique.
