Summary
To overcome means “to dispose of” – not in the sense of “getting rid of,” but rather in the sense of having something “at your disposal,” being able to deal freely with it. “To overcome does not mean ‘to push away,’” Heidegger explains, “but rather ‘to take into a new disposition’” (GA9:63/51).
