Gadamer, language, hermeneutics.Abstract
In this paper we attempt to think about the Hans-Georg Gadamer’s claim: “being that can be understood is language”. Substantially, this is a criticism to the traditional conceptions of language and at the same time a change in the purposes of Hermeneutics. There are a lot of interpretations about this claim, but some aspects of it were not explored. The relevance of such study is to understand Gadamer’s Hermeneutics und its contribution to Philosophy.Downloads
