This is the "intention" of Gadamer "not falling into the rut romantic" (338) operating on the basis of ontology Heidegger, a shift of the hermeneutical problem of prejudice and tradition . We know how crucial was the contribution of Heidegger renewal of contemporary hermeneutics, Gadamer that did not fail to stress the rest: "The record of Heidegger temporality of human Dasein has shown convincingly, in my opinion that understanding is not a mode of behavior in other matters, but the mode of being of Dasein itself. In that sense, the concept of hermeneutics is being implemented here. It means the basic motion of life, which is in its finitude and its historicity, and thus embraces the whole experience monde3. Before s'appartenir and can establish with the world and himself a subject to subject, man is to be, in the sense that it always-déjàl'être: not in a way as a result of reflexive awareness, but as it is a Da-sein, then a being irretrievably discard...

"Time is no longer primarily a gulf to be bridged, because it separates, but it is actually the supportive ground of process in which the present is rooted. Hence temporal distance is not something that must be overcome. This was, rather, the naive assumption of historicism, namely that we must set ourselves within the spirit of the age, and think with its ideas and its thoughts, not with our own, and thus advance towards historical objectivity. In fact the important thing is to recognise the distance in time as a positive and productive possibility of understanding. It is not a yawning abyss, but is filled with the continuity of custom and tradition, in the light of which all that is handed down presents itself to us." (Gadamer 1975: 264f.) "Understanding is not to be thought of so much as an action of one's subjectivity, but as the placing of oneself within a process of tradition, in which past and present are constantly fused." (Gadamer 1975: 258) "The ...

Hermeneutics is the art of understanding, but also a wide range of different approaches in the context of scholars such as Friedrich Schleiermacher, Wilhelm Dilthey and Martin Heidegger (Maclean 1986; see also Johnsen and Olsen, 1992: 420-423, 429f.). In this work, the important is the hermeneutics of Hans-Georg Gadamer, in his magnum opus Truth and Method (1975). Understanding interpretation as a time lag Most importantly, Gadamer has made it clear that he, hermeneutics is not a method for understanding, but an attempt "to clarify the conditions in which understanding takes place" (Gadamer 1975: 263). Under such conditions are crucial, prejudices and fore-meanings in the minds of the interpreters. Understanding is always interpretation, and it means confronting his own ideas, so that the meaning of the object can be really, talk to us (Gadamer 1975: 358). Understanding is not only a reproductive, but a very productive process, and interpretation is always changing during the...

Brain is still? The more we learn, the brain, the more this question difficult to answer. To material scientists only matter is real, nothing else. For them, mental phenomena, or what we call spirit are all products of material phenomena. Logical positivism asserts the primacy of observation in assessing the truth of the statement of facts. Arguments not on observable data are meaningless. These philosophies, separation of the mind as a non-material entity is not possible. Gregory Bateson presents his theory of the unity of mind and brain elegant, "The spirit is no longer separated from the body as the speed is independent of the matter. Or, as acceleration is independent of speed." This is in contrast to Descartes' concept or Cartesian dualism, where the observer (you) is separated from the observed (the rest of the universe). The modern description of the mind is derived from the brilliant philosophy of Max Planck. Proposed on 14 December 1900, his theory of quantum phy...

The big question remains: Who am I? What is it that makes me act? Who or what controls my actions and I do things that perpetuate my race? What is the nature of the material I? I is in me or outside me? Philosophers have long tried to answer these questions, because the man began to think, or I was created. Modern theories of science have their attack on the issue, and if we have not found the answer, we have come a long way. The spirit or soul was for a long time as an integral part of the body. The Spirit lived in different parts of our body, the most popular are the heart, as the Bible says. There was apparently no problem accepting this concept, up to about three hundred years. In the seventeenth century, Rene Descartes, who at the tender age of 24 proved to be one of the most influential philosophers. Before the time of Descartes, mind and body, and it was sacriligous to open cadaver or next one. Descartes proposed that the mind is separated from the body, and that God is the medi...

I can not atheists - but it is not because they do not believe in God. It is because they are crashing bores. Other people, recently the British cultural critic Terry Eagleton in his new book, "Faith, Reason and Revolution" to this task Superstar nonbelievers as Oxford biologist Richard Dawkins ( "The God Delusion") and political journalist Christopher Hitchens ( "God is not great "), for a primitive philosophical contradiction of faith and reason that assumes that if science can not prove something, it does not exist. My problem with atheists is their annoying - and so old - that they are suppressed and their fixation with the finer points of Christianity. What - have their Sunday school teachers flew her ass with a Bible when they children? Read Dawkins, Hitchens or, or the work of fellow atheist Sam Harris ( "The End of Faith") and Daniel Dennett ( "Breaking the Spell"), or visit an atheist Web site or blog (there are dozens of them,...

French main representative of a philosophical, above all German - whose figures were in the nineteenth century, Schleiermacher and Dilthey, and the twentieth century, Heidegger and especially Gadamer - Paul Ricoeur has clearly given the task to the early 1960's legacy to fertilize hermeneutics in opening new horizons of thought: phenomenology, psychoanalysis, philosophy Anglo-Saxon language, in particular, such an opening it had to lead a thorough program herméneutique2. It is this spirit of openness and dialogue with other major currents of contemporary thought, a spirit might say ecumenical underlying the effort in "Hermeneutics and critique of ideology" to rethink the question basic hermeneutics in a way that "would do justice to the critique of ideology, [...] which shows the need for the substance of its own requirements" (333). Task that requires first the removal of the mortgage romantic, according to Ricoeur, continues to weigh on the issue or the proble...

by Syamsul Maarif There seems to be a characteristic of modern man that he had any statement to claim a hardship exists. So he answered - ex cathedra - questions that the rise time, from the constitution of his own ego. It is not so much the often lamented lack of a real life middle of a real general opinion of modern civilization, to the explanation of this behavior would be sufficient is much more to the modern man secretly totally sure that in all of its own existence Trichkräfte his own time are effective. It seems to him a mere matter of intense attention, which he directed at himself, and believes he has all the mysteries of his time and can cope with - if it takes a fair man - also to be able to pronounce. By the modern thinkers on the effective attitude in him giving evidence, he believes, that in itself all the time streams flow together. Such an opinion seems outrageous and highly vulnerable. But even Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky were their subject. Walther Rathenau has such a won...

philosophy (Greek philosophía, literally 'love of wisdom') tries to explain the world and human existence is to interpret and understand. Of the other sciences, it differs in that it does not cover a specific area or a specific methodology is limited, but by the nature of their problems and their particular approach to its wide variety of subject areas is characterized. The beginnings of philosophical thought in the West go to 6 pre-Christian century. In the ancient philosophy unfolded in systematic and science-oriented thinking of the Occident. Over the centuries the various different methods and disciplines in the world of science and development, directly or indirectly, from philosophy, to some extent, as opposed to irrational or religious world views and mythologies. Core areas of philosophy, the logic (as the science of logical thinking), ethics (the science of right action) and metaphysics (the science of the first reason of being and reality). Other disciplines are the b...

the second topic that we discuss are: Our topic now is the contemporary philosophy of knowledge. I assume that you all have already mastered the mainstreams in that philosophy: positivism and interpretivism. Our first questions, criticizes the position of solipsism (one-self-ism). This school claims that being is knowing. Our second question criticizes the position of atomism or methodological individualism. Be focus. Albert Muhajir Sholeh said : "one thing i can say that is individualism is god. its means everyone must have his/her personal character! no matter the other will discouraged to us, but the important one is "i as one-self-ism in my self".... confuse sir? Sakban Rosidi said: "No, I am not confused, but you, since you actually do not know what do you talk. It is getting worse because too many misspellings and syntatic errors in your comment. But let me make it clear. Methodological individualism is not an ideology like individualism. It is a philosopical ...
