Question of being = Question of the truth of be-ing: grounding question, as opposed to the guiding question of philosophy, the question about beings. [...] how be-ing hold sway (wie das Seyn west). I feel that the german verb west used by Heidegger, is key to the understanding of the Contributions. Wesen has been used to translate essentia, but its first meaning, says Jean Beaufret in a note to the translation of Das Wesen der Sprache is lasting, stay with (sojourn), unfolding (deploy) of its being or way of being. We can say that beings are, but we cannot say that being is. Thus being west, opens itself to let see beings while staying itself invisible. Being let something come to the fore while it retract itself: i think this is why the translators of the Contributions used sway and swaying; there is in fact a kind of "sway" in Being.
Going against metaphysics: be-ing can no longer be thought of in the perspective of beings; it must be enthought (erdacht) from within be-ing itself. About "er", that was rendered by "en" see translators note on "Er": it has the meanings of "achieving", "enhancing", "carrying forth". So "enthinking" is more than just "thinking": it's a thinking that has been carried thoroughly through.
Abground (Abgrund): "Der Ab-grund ist Ab-grund." (Heidegger!) Note from translator: Ab-grund is a ground that prevails while staying away. Steadfastness (Beständigkeit) (constancy). This thinking-saying [...] never lets itself become a doctrine [...] but such thinking-saying directs the few [...]. Heidegger elitist? -I don't think so, but it is true that Dasein is most often a Wegsein: man is not there, he's on an escape mode, because of the passing of time, because of death; he wants to forget, forget himself in objects. Therefore, we have a few, that can truly understand.
[...] can not-granting (the not-character of be-ing) become in the extreme the remotest en-ownment [...] To know be-ing's essential sway as enowning means not only to know the danger of not-granting, but also to be ready for the overcoming. Because this is all so far ahead , the first thing here continues to be: to put be-ing into question.
[...] everyone tries to explain "my" attempt merely historically [historisch] and appeals to the past, which he thinks he grasps because it seems already to lie behind him. With Heidegger we know that the past is more often ahead of us.
[...] the happening of the truth of be-ing must be transposed from the first beginning into the other, so that the wholly other song of be-ing sounds in the playing-forth (Zuspiel).
Opposition Geschichte (authentical)/Historie (inauthentical): And thus what is happening everywhere here is really history [Geschichte], which remains out of reach of what is merely historical [das Historische] [...].
