For a discussion on the idea of “post,” see, for example, Bernhard Siegert, Relays: Literature as an Epoch of the Postal System (Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 1999). 2. Epoch, epoche, refers to that which releases, to that which makes what is released possible, to a giving that makes what is given possible. This is the idea behind Heidegger's thinking of Being as epochal sending; he writes: “Epoch does not mean here the span of time in occurrence, but rather the fundamental characteristics of sending, the actual holding-back of itself in favor of the discernibility of the gift, that is, of Being with regard to the grounding of beings,” Martin Heidegger, On Time and Being (San Francisco: Harper & Row, 1972), 9. 3.
