This classic, first published in 1969, introduces to
English-speaking readers a field which is of increasing importance
in contemporary philosophy and theology--hermeneutics, the theory
of understanding, or interpretation. Richard E. Palmer, utilizing
largely untranslated sources, treats principally of the conception
of hermeneutics enunciated by Heidegger and developed into a
"philosophical hermeneutics" by Hans-Georg Gadamer. He provides a
brief overview of the field by surveying some half-dozen alternate
definitions of the term and by examining in detail the
contributions of Friedrich Schleiermacher and Wilhelm Dilthey. In
the Manifesto which concludes the book, Palmer suggests the
potential significance of hermeneutics for literary interpretation.
