Abstract

The article tries to consider the problem of crisis as a condition of thinking; as a condition that both accompanies and enables thinking. The starting point of the article is an attempt to show a difficulty of interpretation of the fact, that the words from Plato’s Sophistes are cited at the very beginning of Being and Time as well as a difficulty of interpretation of meaning of those words. On this basis, article tries to show the possible understanding of Plato’s and Socrates’ philosophy as concerning the problems that are close to the ones which became neuralgic to Heidegger. The suggestion is, that according to all of them the condition of possibility of thinking is a community, which is possible only in the context of inalienable perspectivity of thinking itself. That is why the essence of perspectivity as such becomes also the question of the article.
