چکیده

The significance of “being” has been an essential topic for theory. One of the main logicians of the 20th century Martin Heidegger (1889-1976), looks at this inquiry fundamentally in his Being and Time (1927). Heidegger applies what he calls phenomenological metaphysics as the methodological way to deal with the subject of being by which he examines Dasein as the site for the comprehension of being. As per Heidegger in Being and Time Dasein, individuals should make accessible the appropriate ground for the subject of being. This research study examined the medium of Dasein in George R. R. Throughout the story, and the characters confirmed their existence in the society, which is associated with power relations and death. Death is manifested metaphorically in each stage of life to depict their Dasein through their actions. Consequently, the researchers investigated Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire and sows how death attempts to take over while the characters try for survival.
