Concerns about the individual object and the whole world in traditional Western thought hold the premise that is the being of the World. However, the way of thinking that presupposes the World skips the phenomenon of world itself from the very beginning.The world, as the basic phenomenological fact and the conceptual transit from Hussel to Heidegger, has a fundamental postion in Heidegger's early thought: it is the very point of departure and also the point of destination; it means being-in-the-world and centers on the actual experience of thisness. Furthermore, the world itself is the horizon where meaning originally generates.Heidegger's analysis of the phenomenon of world elucidates how thought explicates for itself in the historical formation of ideas and how it actualizes the daily life. This study unfolds a detour for us, the cultural other, to access our own tradition and reflects the horizon, as the original meaning generator, that explicates our culture and thought and is implicated in it meanwhile.
