In his late text "Vertauschte Fronten" Franz Rosenzweig analyzes the Davos Disputation and underlines an apparently surprising continuity between the Heideggerian interpretation of Kant and the thinking of Hermann Cohen. Rosenzweig dwells in particular on the Cohenian concept of « correlation » and on Heidegger’s Dasein. Many scholars have already stressed many elements of proximity between Heidegger and the « New Thinking » : finitude, temporality, language. But still unexamined has remained the question of the body. Cohen, Heidegger and Rosenzweig agree in trying to overcome a dualistic view of the mind-body problem. Correlation, Dasein and the « and » are very powerful theoretical means to present a new conception of the body.
