Although Bakhtin and Hegel's ideas are not very clearly related at first glance, and especially since Bakhtin is critical of Hegel and his dialectical method in his explicit statements, yet, Bakhtin's principles let us have an intertextual reading of his texts and his dialogism, as a framework of his thought, based on Hegel's dialectic. This intertextual reading consists of three parts: In the first part, the dialectical moments, which are "in-itself", "for-itself", and "in-and-for-itself" are identified in Bakhtin's dialogism. The second part is devoted to a review of Bakhtin's dialogism with the help of the logical concepts of "universal", "particular", and "individual" from Hegel's philosophy. In the third part, Bakhtin's claim that Hegel's dialectic is monologic is examined.

In this article, we analyze the basic role of finitude in Heidegger and Foucault’s philosophy. We argue that finitude makes possible Heidegger’s concept of being and the history of being as well as Foucault’s concept of the modernity and the entire history of western thinking in later Foucault. To accomplish this objective, we conduct the following: We analyze the basic finitude in Heidegger’s ontology; We explain “analytic of finitude” in early Foucault’s work namely the birth of the clinic and the order of things; We describe Foucault’s interpretation of Heidegger’s formulation of finitude; We specify the place of partial and relative nothingness in Heidegger and Foucault’s approach to human finitude; We explain that individuality, resistance, truth and historicity are possible by finitude in philosophy of them; And finally, we analyze how Foucault meets Heidegger in passing epistemological understanding of finitude and arriving at practical understanding of self-finitude and outlining the history of being.
