Hermeneutics as Politics, perhaps the most important critique of
post-modern thought ever written, is here reissued in a special
fifteenth anniversary edition. In a new foreword, Robert B. Pippin
argues that the book has rightfully achieved the status of a
classic. Rosen illuminates the underpinnings of post-modernist
thought, providing valuable insight as he pursues two arguments:
first, that post-modernism, which regards itself as an attack upon
the Enlightenment, is in fact merely a continuation of
Enlightenment thought; and second, that the extraordinary
contemporary emphasis upon hermeneutics is the latest consequence
of the triumph of history over mathematics and science. "Perhaps
the most original and philosophically important critical account of
hermeneutics-of its philosophical status and historical
development-to appear since Gadamer's Truth and Method."-Choice "A
philosophical polemic of the highest order written in a language of
unfailing verve and precision. . . . It will repay manyfold the
labour of a slow and considered reading."-J. M. Coetzee, Upstream
