Abstract
The unclarity of the notion of objectivity may be obscured by the tangible achievements of science, yet there always remains an ultimate uncertainty arising from the impossibility of objectively rendering human existence in the world. The offered contribution takes being in a concrete situation as a guideline for a conception of being in the world, i. e. between past and future.
This being could conceive itself as an acting subject in an objectively known world or as a subject seeking knowledge in a world unknown and to be objectified.
