Published in 1997, this volume is written from a
hermenutico-phenomenological point of view. The essays cover a
spectrum of relevant issues: the essential interpretation of
science; the possibility of a "strong hermeneutics of science" that
takes into consideration science's cognitive structure; the
implications of existential-ontological interpretations of science
for the post-metaphysical dialogue between hermeneutics and
epistomology; the place of rhetorical tools in the human sciences;
and the strategies of overcoming the legitimation crisis of the
human sciences. Because of its commitment to the radical
universalization of the hermeneutic problem, the strong programme
of hermeneutics of science, suggested in this book, avoids both
objectivism and relativism. In this regard, the essays must be read
in relation to the search for a middle way between defending
epistemic rationality as a basis for futher development of the
"project of modernity" and the postmodern deconstruction of all
cognitive identities of modernity.
