Abstract As a continuation of my previous paper (Sakamoto, 2004a), this paper attempts an interpretation of "Place" based on experience, in which I (the author, as Dasein) am in "Kinshai-dori" - a shopping mal...l - and understand it as "my place." In the former paper, it was interpreted that the phenomenal place is the world, which unfolds along with the existential-history that belongs to the transcendental "Earth," and that the sense of "Place" itself is the encounter with "Earth." The purpose of this paper is to show a clearer interpretation of the relationship between this existential-history and "Earth." Based on the following two facts, "Earth" is interpreted as the original-horizon that makes place-generation possible. One fact is that, in the existential-upset-situation of "loss of place," the existential-history presents itself in the place even though no concrete object is present. The second fact is that the place is experienced as usual even though I am not present all the time. Finally, from the point of view of how "Earth" is projected, topological interpretations about the concept of understanding and ontological interpretations about the "loss of place" are discussed.show more
