Early Heidegger classified Dasein’s possibilities of Being into authenticity and inauthenticity, and declared that there is no hierarchical difference between these two modes of Being. Nevertheless, this distinction eventually contains an ontologically conditional value judgment as follows: The more primordial is a mode of Being, the better it is, when it comes to understanding the meaning of Being. The author attempts to point out that early Heidegger’s philosophy is able to develop a normative ethical theory based on this ontological value – even though he never actually did it, and even opposed to doing so. In order to complete this task, this paper first clarifies the concepts involved in this topic, and then analyzes the ontological value implicit in early Heidegger's philosophy. The third section of this paper explains how early Heidegger regards “ethics” as a discipline under the control of subjectism through Heidegger's phenomenological method. The fourth section explains the meaning of Heidegger's so-called existential solipsism by analyzing the existential structure of the authentic Dasein. The last section points out that it is possible for us to develop a kind of virtue ethics based on this existential solipsism, although this ethical theory is different from Aristotle’s and Sartre’s.
