The confrontation between Heidegger and the humanistic tradition is well known: it is the form of all metaphysics as subjectivity. We propose in this essay that there is another way to understand his relationship with this humanist tradition from a spatial standpoint. We postulate a connection between the conception of everyday space and of «readiness-to-hand» (Zuhandenheit) in Being and Time, and the conception of collection in the early humanists. From here it is possible to show that early humanism was not just a forerunner of Cartesian subjectivity, and that it represents, as postulated by Gadamer or Grassi, an underground current that emanates from a different metaphysical source, than the one that has dominated western thought. Heidegger appropriates, in an indirect mode, this thought for his project in Being and Time.
