Peirce And Derrida On First And Last Things, Gary Shapiro May 1984

Peirce And Derrida On First And Last Things, Gary Shapiro

University of Dayton Review

The movement of philosophical ideas across national and linguistic borders, especially in these days of international conferences, is notoriously slower than the physical movements of philosophers themselves. When rumblings of new names or new ideas come from afar, there is a rather predictable but unphilosophical tendency to claim that the putative new thoughts are either old hat, trivial or absurd; this trichotomy is not much of an improvement on the older positivistic dichotomy of tautologically trivial or merely empirical. Jacques Derrida is a philosopher of some eminence in France who has generally been subjected to such treatment by English-speaking philosophers, …


The Tandem Arts Of Speaking And Understanding: Influences Of Philosophical Hermeneutics On Research In Speech Communication, William L. Nothstine May 1984

The Tandem Arts Of Speaking And Understanding: Influences Of Philosophical Hermeneutics On Research In Speech Communication, William L. Nothstine

University of Dayton Review

"There would be no speaker and no art of speaking," writes Gadamer, "if understanding and consent were not in question, were not underlying elements; there would be no hermeneutical task if there were no mutual understanding that has been disturbed and that those involved in a conversation must search for and find again together." It is this interpenetration of the two arts — speaking and interpretation — which I will address in this paper. My aim is to point to areas in which hermeneutic phenomenology, as conceptualized by Heidegger in Being and Time, and developed as a basis for philosophical …

Toward An Openly Hermeneutical Paleontology, Maxine Sheets-Johnstone May 1984

Toward An Openly Hermeneutical Paleontology, Maxine Sheets-Johnstone

University of Dayton Review

Fossil bones are part of the landscape. Digging exposes them but does not elucidate them. Radiometric and other dating techniques uncover their place in time and allow a particular imagined structure to take shape — perhaps an early form of australopithecine is imaginatively reconstructed — but the classification of an imagined structure is not the end of an explanation or understanding of the fossil bones. Paleontology is a science; it is also, however, a history. Transposing the past into the present, the paleontologist wants to say of his fossil reconstructions what Hamlet said of Yorick: "I know him well." Thus …


Hermeneutics And Semiotics, Thomas M. Olshewsky May 1984

Hermeneutics And Semiotics, Thomas M. Olshewsky

University of Dayton Review

Richard Rorty, in his Philosophy and the Mirror of Nature, finds the culmination of "Philosophy Without Mirrors" to be in a shift from an epistemological to a hermeneutical orientation for philosophical endeavours. On this matter he cites Hans Gadamer. I want here to suggest an understanding of hermeneutics that utilizes the semiotics of C.S. Peirce to at once incorporate Gadamer's most salient points while precluding Rorty's use of them. In this I hope to show how both Peirce and Gadamer can maintain their anti-Cartesian stance without falling into the easy relativism of Rorty's position. This, in the end, gives a …


Hermeneutics As The Recovery Of Man, John D. Caputo May 1984

Hermeneutics As The Recovery Of Man, John D. Caputo

University of Dayton Review

The point of the present essay will be to thematize the project of recovery, to probe and unfold it, and to defend its role in an adequately conceived hermeneutics. I will argue as follows. There are two philosophies of recovery or retrieval which feed into the hermeneutic strategy of Being and Time — the Kierkegaardian notion of existential "repetition" and the phenomenological return to beginnings in Husserl. In Being and Time, Heidegger demonstrates that these two versions of retrieval are of a piece, that they represent as it were twin circles. I will show that the one circle existential repetition …


Toward A Hermeneutical Approach To Education, Robert Hollinger May 1984

Toward A Hermeneutical Approach To Education, Robert Hollinger

University of Dayton Review

In his remarkable essay "The Problem of Historical Consciousness," Gadamer attempts (inter alia) to recover Aristotle's idea of practical philosophy, and connect it up with his own hermeneutical project. Others, notably Charles Taylor, David Hoy and Habermas have similar aspirations. Hampshire and Perleman also take up ideas in Aristotle's ethical and rhetorical work as part of the same general current of thought, which has recently included the development of a basically Aristotelian notion of human action and understanding, as well as new and exciting research on the Nichomachean Ethics.


Between Truth And Method: Gadamer And The Problem Of Justification In Interpretative Practices, Stephen Watson May 1984

Between Truth And Method: Gadamer And The Problem Of Justification In Interpretative Practices, Stephen Watson

University of Dayton Review

Within the hermeneutic tradition, and what remains left now as its trace, there has always been what may now be called a certain classical dissonance — classical, because it is a certain delay of an epistemological research program whose grids shaped the rise of modern thought. And yet, the practice of heremeneutics, of textual interpretation, has always left those grids perpetually undone.

The Habermas-Gadamer Debate In Hegelian Perspective, David J. Depew May 1984

The Habermas-Gadamer Debate In Hegelian Perspective, David J. Depew

University of Dayton Review

In this paper I will comment on the now concluded debate between Hans-Georg Gadamer and Jürgen Habermas. In that debate, conducted in various forums over the better part of a decade, Habermas accused Gadamer of universalizing a hermeneutic theory which tends to uncritically sustain existing cultural norms. Gadamer, for his part, thought that Habermas' project of "critical theory" yields only an abstract and illusory liberation from untranscendable conditions of cultural understanding. I shall not review point and counterpoint in this exchange. but will, for the most part, take much higher ground. Both Gadamer and Habermas are conscious of formulating their …


Beyond Hermeneutics? Some Remarks On The Meaning And Scope Of Hermeneutics, Richard E. Palmer May 1984

Beyond Hermeneutics? Some Remarks On The Meaning And Scope Of Hermeneutics, Richard E. Palmer

University of Dayton Review

Hermeneutics would seem to be enjoying an unprecedented vogue in America today. A colleague of mine opined somewhat cynically at the hermeneutics symposium earlier this year in Lawrence, Kansas, that hermeneutics owed this popularity in part to the fact that it was a term vague enough to serve as a rallying point in the common battle against scientific reductionism, literary formalism, and positivist modes in sociology — or whatever else one might be against. This was borne out by Richard de George's remark introducing the final panel at the meeting, that hermeneutics seemed to be many things to many people …


Gadamer On Hegel: ‘Taking Finitude Seriously’ And ‘The Unbreakable Circle Of Reflection’, William Maker May 1984

Gadamer On Hegel: ‘Taking Finitude Seriously’ And ‘The Unbreakable Circle Of Reflection’, William Maker

University of Dayton Review

Three of the major schools of contemporary continental thought — critical theory, poststructuralism and philosophical hermeneutics — are alike, despite the manifold differences which distinguish them, in criticizing and rejecting the traditional aim of modern philosophy: Our Cartesian legacy as defined by the ideal of an autonomous, fully transparent, self-legitimating standpoint of reason as a standpoint attainable by the reflective ego, consciousness or thinking self. To a degree, this common point also marks the importance, for them, of Hegel. All can be said to be involved in a love/hate relationship with him. Both the negative and positive impact of Hegel …
