Summary/Abstract: German Idealism profoundly impacted various fields, including philosophy, politics, and aesthetics. Its ideas influenced subsequent philosophical movements, such as existentialism and phenomenology. In philosophical discourse, one finds many perspectives that delve into the intricate relationship between human existence and the spaces we inhabit. Among these renowned thinkers, two voices emerge: Martin Heidegger and Marc Augé’s who share parallel ideas concerning the absence of meaning, disorientation, loss of authenticity, and the impact of modernity on human experience. Both perspectives invite us to reflect on our existence, our spaces, and the deeper connections we seek in a rapidly changing world.
