has anyone given a heideggerian account of mathematics? it does seem superficially like he’d struggle to give one, based on what i’ve read of being and time
given how big the secondary lit is, I’m sure there has been something written on it. But I think you are right that there will be some inherent difficulties in doing so. It seems to me that Heidegger wants to decenter the preeminent status mathematics has held as an exemplar of truth. It is a derivative mode of truth, a mode of being present to hand, and not the most fundamental mode of access to truth.
