Martin Heidegger is widely considered one of the most controversial and influential philosophers of the twentieth century, his influence extending to the works of several philosophers, as well as in important philosophical schools such as existentialism and phenomenology. At the same time, his philosophy is also regarded as notoriously difficult, highly idiosyncratic and often even obscure. It is considered that there are several ways of reading Heidegger, which, in turn, is due to the existence of several ‘Heideggers’, the major distinction being the one that happened with die Kehre, or, ‘the turn’. This turn, which began in the 1930s, marks a departure from the earlier Heidegger and the beginning of a philosophical approach that separates his magnum opus, Being and Time (1927), from subsequent works.

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
The introduction provides an overview of Heidegger's philosophy and the significance of *Introduction to Metaphysics*. The paper then outlines the development of logic, beginning with the concept of logos as gathering and its gradual transformation into logic. This analysis includes discussions of the roles of pre-Socratic philosophers, Plato and Aristotle, and early Christians in shaping the development of logic. The paper concludes with a consideration of the problems that have arisen for the concepts of correctness as a result of the development of logic, linking these problems to the restriction of Being.Schlüsselwörter (Keywords)
