This book discusses Gadamer's theory of context-dependence.
Analytical and partly critical, the book also shows exegetical
accuracy in the rendering of Gadamer's position. It explores the
following questions that Gadamer's theory of context-dependence
tries to answer: in what way is thought influenced by and thus
dependent on its historical context? To what extent and in what way
is the individual able to become reflectively aware of and
emancipate himself from this dependence? The book takes Gadamer's
wide interests into account, e.g. issues relating to the history of
historiography and the nature of art and aesthetic experience. The
problem of the context-dependence of thought is prominent in
contemporary philosophy, including the fields of structuralism,
post structuralism, deconstruction, certain forms of feminist
philosophy and the philosophy of science. In this sense, the book
discusses an issue with wide repercussions.
