A Note About the Title
Factical Feria is deliberately named, and typically, I’d expect that a dictionary would suffice to clear up any “Huh?” moments it may cause. However, ‘feria’ is all but obsolete, and ‘factical’ has its genesis in English-language Heideggerian jargon, so I’ve decided to define them here for any curious readers.

Factical - the factical maintenance of life is the organisation of details like grocery shopping, paying bills, the day-to-day and pragmatic bits of life. (It excludes all types of philosophical questioning, and spiritual practices. The ironic part is that it is within our own facticity that we often find ways into the other-than-factical realms of living.)

Feria – a weekday of a church calendar on which no holiday falls.
