being-in-the-world

is a 'pre-objective perspective' that undermines the very distinctions between first person and third person perspectives.. It is the genuine intertwining between consciousness and nature which is the main way the world is encountered in us.

Our 'being-in-the-world' is not a relation between an objective body and a consciousness... rather, it is a 'pre-objective perspective' that undermines the very distinctions between first person and third person perspectives, and thus represents a genuine intertwining between consciousness and nature (81). It is, in short, the 'junction of the 'psychical' and the 'physiological'' accomplished in the ambiguity of one's own body (82). The early formulations of 'being-in-the-world' foreshadow the ontology of reversibility, since this perspective is precisely the place from within Being that 1 am open to Being, that 1 am both open toward the world and also of the world (VI, 134-45). (landes 29)

is a unified structure that refuses seeing the self and world as two separate beings, just as the subject and object are not to be taken as two separate beings.

emphasis, hermeneutics took a decidedly ontological turn.

Being-in-the-world (In-der-Welt-sein) is almost equivalent to Dasein. (inwood 246)

is engendered when man, who projects himself into the future, is in a situation where the ahead-of-itself comes back to having-been, the present.

In projecting ahead of myself, I do not just wander endlessly into infinity, but come back to my already-being, my having-been or, as Heidegger calls it, my ''thrownness''. I am always already ''in'' something. What am I in' I am in a world. Thus, when the ahead ofitself comes back to having-been, the present, being-in-the-world is engendered.

is the grounding state of being. It is the fundamental ground upon which every other determination of being rests.

Being-in-the-world is the grounding state of Being. It is the fundamental ground upon which every other determination of Being rests. Being-in-the-world is a state of Dasein which therefore is necessarily a priori, although it should nevertheless be understood that Being-in-the-world is not by itself a sufficient determinate of Dasein's Being for the reason that Dasein's Being can only be truly understood in the future sense of the my to be. Being-in-the-world therefore describes the formal understanding of the ground on which Dasein's Being stands. It can only elaborate the broad principles upon which any actual Dasein operates, rather than describing the Being of any particular Dasein with precision. (munday)

is the idea that self and world are not two beings, like subject and object. Rather, self and world are the unity of the structure of 'being-in-the-world'.

Dasein translates literally as 'there-being' and insist on the contingent situatedness of our condition in space and time. We will always find ourselves in a set of spatio-temporal circumstances, that are never entirely of our own making and that we cannot leave behind at will (Wachterhauser, 1986). He also posited that self and world are not two beings, like subject and object. Rather, self and world are the unity of the structure of 'being-in-the-world' (Steele, 1997), and with this emphasis, hermeneutics took a decidedly ontological turn.

is the idea that the world is not something that has to be proved as if we were stuck with some internal world and can’t get out. We are, from the start, in-the-world.

That's right. The way he put it was that philosophers since Descartes had been trying to prove the existence of the external world, and Kant said that it was a scandal that no one had successfully proved the existence of the external world. Heidegger says in Being and Time, it's a scandal that people are trying to prove the existence of the external world, as if we were stuck with this internal world & couldn't get out. Whereas we are, as he puts it, being-in-the-world.

is an argument against the cartesian notion that we are subjects encountering objects, but that it is on account of my capacities for being in the world that anything gets encountered at all.

So it's on the background of the world and my capacities for being in that world, or really being of that world you might say, that anything gets encountered at all. So, as you say, you can't call that into question.
