NT: Generation (Generation), 20, 28, 377; 385, 385 n. 8. See also Destiny; Hand down; Heritage; Historicity Tradition (BT)

Since being-there is always being-with, it belongs to a generation. Being-there’s fateful destiny in and with its generation goes to make up the completely owned coming to pass (Geschehen) of human existence. The central event for Heidegger’s generation was World War I and the ensuing chaotic times of the Weimar Republic. (HDHP)
