The ideas of the German philosopher, Hans-Georg Gadamer have had
considerable influence both in their own right as the leading
modern exposition of philosophical hermeneutics and interpreting
the works of Heidegger, Plato and Hegel. This work covers the trail
of Gadamer's thought. Taking 'Truth and Method' (1960, translated
1975) as the axis of the interpretation of Gadamer's thought, Jean
Grondin lays out the key themes of the work - method, humanism,
aesthetic judgement, truth, the work of history - with exemplary
clarity. Gadamer's concerns are situated in the context of
traditional philosophical issues, showing, for example, how Gadamer
both continues, and significantly modifies, the philosophical
problem as it begins with Descartes and advances rather than simply
follows Heidegger's treatment of the relationship of thinking and
language. In this way Grondin shows how the issues of philosophical
hermeneutics are relevant for contemporary concerns in science and
history.
