Martin Heidegger is the author of the book[1] titled:"What is a Thing". In the paper[2] under the same name, Heidegger was quoted:
From the range of the basic questions of metaphysics we shall here ask this one question: What is a thing? The question is quite old. What remains ever new about it is merely that it must be asked again and again.

Jean Pierre Marquis talks about how Bourbaki group started to represent a thing structurally[3]
