On the question of technology in Martin Heidegger: concept Gestell as essence modern

This work presents points for discussion regarding the origin and development of the concept of 'Technique' in Martin Heidegger's philosophy. The path outlined by the text begins by presenting the background to the question of technology: the critique of metaphysics set out in Being and Time and the critique of modern science found in Contributions to Philosophy: On the Event, in order to understand the broader context that shapes the problem of technology in the philosopher's thought. It goes on to show the extent to which and how his thought, already outlined in his writings from the second half of the 1930s, finds a certain support in the thought of Ernest Jünger. The text then sheds light on Heidegger's understanding of the essence of modern technology as a composition that draws everything in (the notion of Gestell). Finally, it highlights the alternative proposed by Heidegger in relation to the dangers of modern technology, reviving the concepts of physis and techne, as well as the contribution of poetic language in order to avoid the dangers of technology and remain within that which saves.
