In this article, I intend first to clarify the controversy over the concept of time between the early Heidegger and the young Benjamin, referring to an early seminar given by Heinrich Rickert in the summer of 1913 in Freiburg and attended by both young thinkers. Secondly, I intend to indicate further developments of this first constellation through the texts of 1915 and 1916 on time. Finally, after establishing resulting derivations in later fundamental texts of both philosophers, I will conclude by considering their differentiated perspectives onmodernity and on the pre-phenomenon of globalization.
