Product Description

Review

"This is a most welcome and much needed edition..." Religious Studies Review

Product Description

The founding text of modern hermeneutics. Written by the philosopher and theologian Friedrich Schleiermacher as a method for the interpretation and textual criticism of the New Testament, it develops ideas about language and the interpretation of texts that are in many respects still unsurpassed and are becoming current in the contemporary philosophy of language. Contrary to the traditional view of Schleiermacher as a theorist of empathetic interpretation, in this text he offers a view of understanding that acknowledges both the structurally and historically determined aspects of language and the need to take account of the activity of the individual subject in the constitution of meaning. This volume offers the text in a new translation by Andrew Bowie, together with related writings on secular hermeneutics and on language, and an introduction that places the texts in the context of Schleiermacher's philosophy as a whole.

Hermeneutics and criticism, both philological disciplines, both theories belong together, because the practice of one presupposes the other. Read the first page

4.0 out of 5 stars Schleiermacher: Hermeneutics and Criticism by Andrew Bowie, 16 Jan 2007
By Roland R. Kratzner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Schleiermacher: Hermeneutics and Criticism: And Other Writings (Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy) (Paperback)
Good treatment of the thinking behind one of the Great liberal thinkers of the past. Bowie analzes Schliermacher's thinking and traces how he arrived at his new breakthrough position. An excellent addition to anyone who is interested in the history of Liberal thought.
