About this topic
Summary

Hermeneutics concerns the study of understanding and interpretation. While this study includes considerations of the art, techniques, methods, and foundations of interpretative research in the humanities and related disciplines, philosophical inquiry into hermeneutics characteristically focuses on questions raised by the phenomena of understanding and interpretation in epistemology, the theory of meaning, the ontology of human beings, and the philosophy of language and history. Philosophical interest in hermeneutics may be traced back to ancient Greek and Judeo-Christian sources, but the philosophical tradition of modern hermeneutics originates in the early nineteenth century. The principal figures associated with this modern tradition of hermeneutics are Friedrich Schleiermacher, Wilhelm Dilthey, Martin Heidegger, Hans-Georg Gadamer, and Paul Ricoeur. Notable developments in the post-war ear include debate that arose between hermeneutics, on the one hand, and deconstruction and critical theory on the other. More recently, hermeneutics has come to be associated with figures in the continental tradition such as Gianni Vattimo, John Caputo, and Günter Figal, and figures in the anglophone context such as Richard Rorty, Charles Taylor, and John McDowell. The philosophical study of hermeneutics both draws from and is of consequence for several related areas of humanistic research, perhaps especially biblical hermeneutics, legal hermeneutics, the philosophy of medicine and nursing, and the philosophy of education.

Key works

Although philosophical study of hermeneutics has a history that reaches back to ancient Greek and Judeo-Christian sources, the major figures and works associated with modern hermeneutics date from the turn of the nineteenth century. Of nineteenth century sources, an introduction to the contributions of Friedrich Schleiermacher, often characterized as the principal proponent of Romantic hermeneutics, may be found in Hermeneutics and Criticism.  Main lines of Wilhelm Dilthey’s thought may be discerned from his first important theoretical work, Introduction to the Human Sciences. Heidegger’s radicalization of hermeneutics in the first part of the century is developed in an important 1923 lecture course, published as Ontology—the Hermeneutics of Facticity as well as in his masterwork Being and Time. The major work of Hans-Georg Gadamer, the name perhaps most associated with hermeneutics in our time, is Truth and Method. Indications of the some of the most important developments in Gadamer’s later thought may be found in The Gadamer Reader: A Bouquet of The Later Writings. Many of the main lines of Paul Ricoeur’s contributions to hermeneutics may be found in The Conflict of Interpretations: Essays in Hermeneutics. For a broader overview of figures and works associated with modern hermeneutics, see, for example, Kurt Mueller-Vollmer, ed., The Hermeneutics Reader: Texts from the German Tradition from the Enlightenment to the Present and Gayle L. Ormiston and Alan Schrift, eds., The Hermeneutic Tradition from Ast to Ricoeur. Jean Grondin's notable Introduction to Philosophical Hermeneutics includes an extensive bibliography of primary and secondary sources in ancient and modern hermeneutics. Two important companions to the philosophical study of hermeneutics are Niall Keane and Chris Lawn, eds.,The Blackwell Companion to Hermeneutics and Jeff Malpas and Hans-Helmut Gander, eds., The Routledge Companion to Hermeneutics.

Introductions The editor and assistant editor of this page have written an historical and conceptual introduction to hermeneutics in the postwar period: "Hermeneutics in Post-War Continental European Philosophy".

    At least since the publication of Amato's infamous report “Nanotechnology: Shaping the World Atom by Atom” (1999), it has become clear that visions of so called emerging technologies and their implied promises for the future do, indeed, influence policy makers and public decisions. Newer examples are synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, or even Elon Musk's Neuralink. It seems as if the future is inseparably connected to the development of technology. In the context of nanoethics and human enhancement, Nordmann and Grunwald began (...)

    An explanation is a convincing, deductively valid argument that cites at least one law of nature. – This could be a definition of a scientific explanation that takes the notion of understanding seriously because explanation and understanding are intertwined concepts. To arrive at this conclusion, this analysis starts with the question of what makes an explanation an explanation. Philosophers of science have discussed this issue extensively since Carl G. Hempel presented his deductive-nomological model of explanation. It seems that the DN-model (...)

    In this editorial for the special issue on Franz Kafka, Yvanka B. Raynova examines Kafka's relationship to Nietzsche as well as the very different and often contradictory interpretations of Kafka's work by philosophers and literary critics. She argues that although Kafka's novels cannot be directly "translated into a philosophical, theological, sociological, or psychoanalytical discourse" (Jürgen Born), they should not be interpreted and evaluated solely from a literary perspective, as they raise institutional questions that have led to socio-critical and political associations (...)

    A lo largo de doce capítulos, "Hegel y la Filosofía Hermenéutica" lleva a cabo la apertura de un camino de vinculación diferenciada. Dos corrientes del pensamiento son convocadas para develar en su interior determinados puntos de convergencia y divergencia. El libro posee en tal sentido un objetivo doble, a saber, por un lado, esclarecer el legado de la filosofía especulativa en la filosofía hermenéutica, y, por otro lado, descubrir los impulsos de mutua aproximación entre ambas corrientes.

L’autore ripercorre la vicenda intellettuale frankiana, indagando diversi aspetti della Frage nach dem Subjekt” e delineando un percorso che prende le mosse dalla teorizzazione della soggettività debole (che Frank ricava dal primo romanticismo) e che – passando per le discussioni concernenti il problema del “Zeitbewußtsein”, la dimensione estetica della soggettività e l’ermeneutica dell’individualità – si conclude nell’analisi del (...)

    Los primeros compases del estado de alarma producido por la pandemia de COVID-19 en nuestro país ha supuesto una situación de confinamiento obligatorio. Este confinamiento ha mostrado el aburrimiento global que surge cuando la cotidianidad se ve alterada y pone a los sujetos enfrente de sí mismos.

    La conferencia de Martin Heidegger Der Begriff der Zeit (1924) es uno de los textos clave para entender la génesis de Sein und Zeit (1927), considerada una de las obras más importantes no sólo del autor sino de toda la filosofía del siglo XX. En dicha conferencia se expone la analítica existencial, reflejada mediante el concepto de Dasein, que luego constituirá la base de la ontología fundamental en la que se cimenta todo el texto de 1927. Dicha ontología tiene como (...)

    Con nuestras reflexiones pretendemos mostrar la ruptura de lo familiar-cotidiano y la existencia auténtica siguiendo las premisas que Martin Heidegger expone en sus trabajos redactados alrededor de 1935. En dichos textos cobra especial importancia la poética, ya que el modo en que ésta emplea el lenguaje presupone una realidad originaria del ser humano en el que no se encuentra un hogar familiar al que debiera volver, sino que revela la situación inhóspita a la que está arrojado el ser humano, no (...)

    Se trata de pensar metafísicamente el habitar y lo inhabitual. Siempre se está habitando y lo inhabitual, lo extraño, es aquello que no es lo cotidiano y familiar. La vida cotidiana acoge dichos términos por su cercanía, lo que le da un cierto aura de evidencia, pero este aura se desmorona cuando tratamos de formular el habitar y lo inhabitual más allá del, valga la redundancia, concepto preconcebido.

    Los planteamientos filosóficos de Martin Heidegger son a menudo reseñados como un camino que el pensador alemán recorre a lo largo de su vida en su indagación por la pregunta por el sentido del ser. Dicha pregunta encierra la cuestión esencial de un método para el pensar. Primeramente ese método toma la forma de la fenomenología, que toma del que fuera su maestro Edmund Husserl, pero va modificando dicho método, dando saltos que lo llevan de la fenomenología a la hermenéutica.

  15. Asymmetric Power, Asymmetric Knowledge, and Solidarity: Lessons from Hermeneutic and Creolizing Epistemologies.Patricia Cipollitti Rodríguez - 2024 - Critical Times 7 (3):448–477.
    Emancipatory social movement solidarities are prefigurative associations. While pursuing broad-based social transformations, solidaristic agents attempt to model—in an incomplete and provisional way—the social relations they wish to bring into existence. Existing structures of domination, deep-set and overlapping as they are, pose an abiding challenge to the prefiguration of just relations, however. This article considers the challenge of prefiguration by developing a diachronic, goal-oriented, and epistemic account of solidarity. The author argues that solidarity is a collaborative process whereby agents prefigure relationships (...)

  17. Scepticism about Meaning in the German Enlightenment.Vladimir Lazurca - 2025 - International Journal for the Study of Skepticism 15 (1):1-31.
    Exegetical scepticism is a strand of scepticism about meaning running through the German Enlightenment. This paper provides the first modern account of its tenets, critics, and proponents, and argues that it shares essential features with modern varieties of meaning-scepticism that have been a preoccupation among philosophers of language since the middle of the twentieth century. I argue that exegetical scepticism is a type of epistemological scepticism first introduced as a philosophical position in a theological debate between August Pfeiffer (1640–1698) and (...)

    An intentional fallacy is committed when one sets the goal of getting to the author’s intention. In this paper, I restore authorial authority, through proposing a situational hermeneutic. It obligates, when engaging with a text, stepping into the author’s shoes. Instead of focusing only on the ideas of the author, I emphasise the importance of knowing how the text relates to the author’s world through identifying the referents. This priority of reference over meaning resonates with Chad Hansen’s black-box analogy in (...)

Metaphorology is presented as an idiosyncratic variant of a conceptual history that draws attention to the fact that what intellectual historians examine as historically influential “concepts” are less clearly defined ideas than a kind of - pragmatically effective - images. Blumenberg calls these background images “metaphors.”.

    The courage to use one's own reason is an invitation to take more actions---implicating excessive use of agency, even under rampant false consciousness manufactured by mass media and technological priorities. If one does nothing and gains nothing by doing nothing, one is not subject to any evaluation or interpretation. Modernity is an ongoing incessant festival of cruel hermeneutic sacrificial.

  21. The Critical Hermeneutic Structure of Plot.Morteza Shahram - manuscript
    Psychological and social-psychological critique of the characters in a plot is a strand of literary criticism. How a depicted character does actually think even in spite of appearances or not. How a depicted character would act or think under the siege of counterfactual scenarios. Perhaps contra Derrida, one reason there is genre distinction between philosophy and literature is that a philosophical (or even literary-critical) text is not essentially subject to character psychology to which literary texts are contrastingly essentially subject.

    In philosophical discourse, the notion of freedom demands rigorous examination. Traditionally, a distinction has been made between negative freedom (freedom from external constraints that impede one's self-realization) and positive freedom (freedom to utilize one's own capabilities). In the essay "A Strange Freedom: New Meanings of Liberalism and Humanism in the 21st Century [De vreemde vrijheid. Nieuwe betekenissen van vrijzinnigheid en humanisme in de 21ste eeuw]," philosopher and theologian Laurens ten Kate proposes a conceptualization of freedom that transcends this traditional dichotomy.

    In his new book ‘When the Grain of Wheat Doesn't Die.

The focus is not on a higher power revealing itself to humanity, but on the revelation of human nature itself. Central to this examination is the phenomenological question regarding the nature of appearance. The primary concern is not what appears, but rather how the appearance itself occurs. Welten posits that (...)

After exploring various hermeneutic strategies of reading Heidegger’s oeuvre, I turn to Richard Capobianco’s interpretation of Heidegger and critically engage with his idea of the experience of being itself as the ‘luminous self-showing of logos’. In doing so, I explain the later turn from ‘truth’ to ‘place’ and articulate why logos needs (...)

    This article accounts for Heidegger’s phenomenological concept of violence from the period of Being and Time. Violence is relevant for Heidegger in two different contexts: (i) methodological, where we speak of hermeneutic violence, and (ii) thematic, where we should speak of existential violence. The former is grounded in the latter. In the first part of the article, I analyze hermeneutic violence, showing that this concept is ambiguous, and one has to distinguish between two different meanings of it. In the second (...)

  3. A Phenomenology of the polis? Ethics, Dialectic and Hermeneutics in Gadamer's Early Interpretation of Plato.Facundo Bey - 2025 - In Hans-Georg Gadamer. Cuestiones abiertas / Open Questions. Quito: Filosófica, Fundación de Estudios Filosóficos, Políticos y Culturales (Colección Filosófica Actual)-Editorial Universitaria de la Universidad Central Del Ecuador. pp. 425-464.
    This chapter examines Gadamer’s early interpretation of Plato, focusing on his 1931 work Platos dialektische Ethik, to demonstrate how his understanding of Platonic dialectic as the theory of dialogue’s objective possibility marked a decisive philosophical departure from Heidegger.

  5. Demise of Author via Noah Ark Textual Condensation — The End of History in the End of Historiography.Morteza Shahram - manuscript
    what really needs to remain from the text at the end of the day is that which contains all there is to know about how to live the end (The Final Text). The most effective technique of acceleration to the summit of history is to forget all that needs to be forgotten. Perhaps languages must compete and merge for unification. One thing that for sure has to go is that who wrote what and when. Once the author is physically dead, (...)
