Anotace

Poslední úprava: Mgr. Felix Borecký, Ph.D. (20.02.2020)

The goal of the course is to outline main issues of modern hermeneutics of H.-G. Gadamer and P. Ricœur. Key texts are as follow: Gadamer’s major work Truth &Method (Wahrheit und Methode) and Ricœur’s writings concerning hermenetutics from his Essays in Hermeneutics I (The Conflict of Interpretation) and Essays in Hermeneutics II (From Text to Action). Additionally, the focus will be held on aesthetic topics from The Relevance of the Beautiful, The Rule of Metaphor and Time and Narrative in order to consider the decisive effect of hermeneutics on reception aesthetics.
