ESQUERRA LUZAD, María del Mar. COMPREHENSION AND SELF-UNDERSTANDING IN GADAMER'S HERMENEUTICS, AND SOME PROSPECTS FOR HUMANISM. Univ. philos. [online]. 2014, vol.31, n.63, pp.97-117. ISSN 0120-5323.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.uph31-63.cahg.

Hermeneutics is generally thought as a method in philosophy, which aims to unify efforts in order to resolve historical issues in determining the truth. Considerations about method gain importance to the human sciences in the nineteenth century with studies by Schleiermacher and Dilthey, but they are taken up by Gadamer within the ontological analysis of understanding, paving the way for the reflection of a hermeneutics that inevitably puts into play the ethical implications from discussions, which can be omitted to focus only on method and not in the praxis of this comprehensive exercise. The latter can be detailed in the analysis of the structure of self-understanding and comprehension in Gadamer's hermeneutics and observe in turn the implications of this analysis in the study of human sciences and humanism.

Palavras-chave : hermeneutics; Hans-Georg Gadamer; comprehension; self-understanding; human existence.
