Bøger i Yale Studies in Hermeneutics serien

Twenty leading thinkers explore the ways rhetoric and hermeneutics inform each other and influence a wide variety of intellectual fields. Essays are arranged by topic: inventions and applications; arguments and narratives; and civic discourse and critical theory.

In this historical introduction to philosophical hermeneutics, Jean Grondin discusses the major figures from Phyla to Habermas, analyzes conflicts among various interpretive schools, and provides a critique of Gadamer's view of hermeneutic history.

Edmund Husserl (1859-1938), known as the founder of the phenomenological movement, was one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. This book traces the development of Husserl's thought from his earliest investigations in philosophy - informed by his work as a mathematician - to his publication of "Ideas" in 1913.
