Through a detailed study of Herder's Enlightenment thought,
especially his philosophy of literature, Kristin Gjesdal offers a
new and sometimes provocative reading of the historical origins and
contemporary challenges of modern hermeneutics. She shows that
hermeneutic philosophy grew out of a historical, anthropological,
and poetic discourse in the mid-eighteenth century and argues that,
as such, it represents a rich, stimulating, and relevant engagement
with the potentials and limits of human meaning and understanding.
Gjesdal's study broadens our conception of hermeneutic philosophy -
the issues it raises and the answers it offers - and underlines the
importance of Herder's contribution to the development of this
discipline. Her book will be highly valuable for students and
scholars of eighteenth-century thought, especially those working in
the fields of hermeneutics, aesthetics, and European philosophy.
