This article offers an interpretation of certain passages of the lectures on The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics: World, Finitude, Solitude which Martin Heidegger dictated at the University of Freiburg (Germany), in the winter semester of 1929/30. My research hypothesis is that Heidegger provides a metaphysical reading of logic that have anthropological consequences in the sense that they allow the distinction between animals and humans. In other words, I think the detailed analysis on the "as" (als) is, in part, the Heideggerian response to one of the fundamental anthropological questions of the time, that is: what is the difference between an animal and a human being?
