Summary
Topology (topologie) is the “saying of place” (a meaning that can be derived directly from the two contained terms, topos, meaning “place,” and logos). “Topology” figures only in Heidegger’s later writings and then rarely. The term appears in Heidegger’s exchange with Ernst Jünger where topology (there distinguished from topography, Topographie) is described as a “discussion [Erörterung] locating that locale which gathers being and nothing into their essence” (GA9:412/311).
