Heitz, Marty HenryRickman, Shane Daniel2019-07-192019-07-192018-12-01https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14446/321012We examine the traditional Western accounts of spatiality, seen through the prisms of both the Western and Eastern philosophic paradigms. We then attempt a movement towards a new spatial account, where embodiment, spatiality, and the possibilities of being are seen as equally primordial with one another. Our spatial account launches from and subsequently beyond that of Heidegger, especially where embodiment and the role of Dasein are concerned.application/pdfCopyright is held by the author who has granted the Oklahoma State University Library the non-exclusive right to share this material in its institutional repository.
