In this chapter, Vigdis Songe-MÃ¸ller approaches Eugen Finkâs interpretation of ancient Greek philosophy by examining the seminar on the fragments of Heraclitus that Fink conducted together with Martin Heidegger. The chapter pursues one question that permeates the dialogue between Eugen Fink and Martin Heidegger during this seminar: what is the relation between hen (one) and ta panta (all things) in Heraclitusâs thinking? According to Fink, this relation belongs to Heraclitusâs cosmology. Cosmology is also a concept central to Finkâs own thought, which he had developed in critical confrontation with Husserlâs and Heideggerâs theories of âworld.â In order to bring central features of Finkâs understanding of Heraclitus to light, his interpretation of hen, ta panta, and other key terms in Heraclitusâs cosmology are critically analyzed, also on the basis of Finkâs own cosmology, which at times is hard to distinguish from that of Heraclitus.
