The article investigates the possibility of broadening Gadamer’s hermeneutical theory of the interpretation of a text also on the theory of the interpretation of human action. As a model for the development of hermeneutical inquiries, the author uses the theme of a understanding sociology. The successive parts of the article are aimed at analysing the conception of a understanding social action in Max Weber; at the subsequent critique and phenomenological development of this conception in the sociological theory of action of Alfred Schütz; and finally, and above all, at a differentiated inquiry into the problem of understanding the action of the other whose sociological treatment is, in the article, related to the more fundamental philosophical conception of understanding, as it was presented in Gadamer’s hermeneutics. The study, as a whole, shows not only that Gadamer’s concepts of horizon, the merging of horizons, and the hermeneutical situation may be meaningfully related to the question of the interpretation of human action, but also that new perspectives of inquiry may be opened up for sociological and philosophical theories of action.

Firstly, the analytic finger is pointed towards difficulties arising in the attempt to precisely define metaphor. The importance of the broadly understood context in which it appears is emphasized as indispensable for the emergence of (a given) metaphor’s meaning. Moreover, two theories, which appear to be the most essential points of reference in the discussion, are addressed: the ‘substitution theory’, which reverts to Aristotle’s model, and Max Black’s ‘interaction theory’, which presents the modern approach. Furthermore, the metaphor’s interpretative potential, including both its positive and negative connotations, is outlined. Finally, the role of metaphor in the literary discourse is discussed with reference to Paul Ricoeur’s texts.

Gianni Vattimo, who is both a Catholic and a frequent critic of the Church, explores the surprising congruence between Christianity and hermeneutics in light of the dissolution of metaphysical truth. As in hermeneutics, Vatimo claims, interpretation is central to Christianity. Influenced by hermeneutics and borrowing largely from the Nietzschean and Heideggerian heritage, the Italian philosopher, who has been instrumental in promoting a nihilistic approach to Christianity, draws here on Nietzsche’s writings on nihilism, which is not to be understood in a purely negative sense. Vattimo suggests that nihilism not only expands the Christian message of charity, but also transforms it into its endless human potential. In “The Age of Interpretation,” the author shows that hermeneutical radicalism “reduces all reality to message,” so that the opposition between facts and norms turns out to be misguided, for both are governed by the interpretative paradigms through which someone (always a concrete, historically situated someone) makes sense of them. Vattimo rejects some of the deplorable political consequences of hermeneutics and claims that traditional hermeneutics is in collusion with various political-ideological neutralizations.

Der Aufsatz betrifft die in dem Altertum von christlichen und nichtchristlichen Autoren benutzte Allegorie. Die christliche Allegorie ist aber gar nicht dieselbe wie bei den anderen (heidniche Philosophie, Philo). De Unterschied besteht in Annahme der Historizität der betreffenden Aussagen, vor allem der in der Annahme der entscheidenden Bedeutung Christi für das Verstehen der ganzen alttestamentlichen Geschichte. Im Horizont der Hermeneutikprinzipien von Origenes ist das besonders überzeugend. Eben diese Hermenutikprinzipien lassen verstehen, wie weit die allegorische Interpretation in der Gesamtheit der alexandrinischen Exegese eingebaut ist.

The article deals with Heidegger’s attitudes towards theology. Heidegger, stating that existential philosophy and theology are incompatible, advances a thesis of not objectivating poetic thinking. Whereas, Ricoeur’s biblical hermeneutics is based on his theory of metaphor. The lingual act here means the destruction of the old outlook for the sake of the new one. In this dramatic way cognition occurs as a meeting. The poetic thinking of the late Heidegger is also based on a meeting that covers both horizontal coexistence and vertical direction. The author raises the question whether the poetic thinking of the late Heidegger is not theological?

The article contains an analysis of the concept of aesthetic experience of Gianni Vattimo in the horizon of his hermeneutics. It refers to the views of Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger and Walter Benjamin, from which Vattimo drew his inspirations. These considerations focus on the thesis that the aesthetic experience of contemporary art, which causes confusion and alienation, “weakens” the metaphysical way of thinking and also “reality” and human identity which are based on it. However, the impact of contemporary art seems to be positive because it gives an opportunity to develop a new kind of vulnerability that is associated with openness to all that is various, different, variables, fragile, incomplete and transient. Aesthetic experience is considered in relation to the trends that are characteristic for late modernity. In the article there is also analyzed the problem of the ambivalence of technology and the mass media in the process of “weakening” the fictional reality.

Human engagement with the world develops and evolves into increasingly social, complex, and explicit modes. This essay examines the evolution of meaningful human engagement from simple embodied activity, to language-less social praxis, and then to praxis incorporating increasingly rich forms of linguistic action, culminating in theory. Each mode of meaningful engagement creates a space in which new modes of meaning can develop. These new ways of experiencing, acting, and communicating create their own meaning contexts, which provide the settings for the further evolution of humans' phenomenological, hermeneutic, and practical involvements. Each mode of meaning gives rise to its successors, allowing humans to acquire new powers to understand and manipulate their environments and each other. This increase and refinement of human power raises ethical issues that we address using the Gadamerian concept of dialogue.

This article is an introduction to the idea of tradition which is present in H.-G. Gadamer’s thoughts. The author analyzes tradition in the context of the art experience. In the first part the author of this paper describes tradition in the broader hermeneutic context. The author depicts tradition and, consecutively: understanding, hermeneutic experience, ‘historically effected consciousness’, horizon, authority, prejudice. The second part addresses specifically Gadamer's thoughts on the arts as an experience of tradition. Gadamer's hermeneutic theory is interpreted as a presumptive solution to the problem of contemporary culture.

Podział tekstu Pięcioksięgu na mniejsze jednostki ma tradycję tak długą, jak jego formowa- nie. Najbardziej podstawowy podział to pięć ksiąg, ale także wewnątrz niego obserwuje się podział na mniejsze jednostki. Obok starożytnego podziału, wyznaczanego przez spacje petucha i setuma, w TM zaznaczono jeszcze inny - na czytania synagogalne. W I tysiącleciu istniały dwie tradycje czytań: „cykl palestyński", w którym cały Pięcioksiąg był czytany w cyklu trzyletnim, oraz „cykl babiloński", dzielący Torę na 54 sekcje, uzasadnione potrzebą przeczytania jej w ciągu jednego roku. Każdy z tygodniowych odczytów dzieli się dodatkowo na siedem części. Podział ten rządzi się własnymi prawami. Czytana perykopa pozostawia w pamięci pewne wątki, a szczególne znaczenie ma jej zakończenie. Wewnętrzny podział także odwołuje się do per- cepcji słuchacza, a więc również zakończenie poszczególnych części ma znaczenie dla kształtowa- nia świadomości słuchaczy. W artykule przedstawiono pięć różnych perykop według porządku ba- bilońskiego celem ukazania charakterystycznych rysów tego podziału.

In this paper I will attempt to explain why the controversy surrounding the alleged refutation of Mechanism by Gödel’s theorem is continuing even after its unanimous refutation by logicians. I will argue that the philosophical point its proponents want to establish is a necessary gap between the intended meaning and its formulation. Such a gap is the main tenet of philosophical hermeneutics. While Gödel’s theorem does not disprove Mechanism, it is nevertheless an important illustration of the hermeneutic principle. The ongoing misunderstanding is therefore based in a distinction between a metalogical illustration of a crucial feature of human understanding, and a logically precise, but wrong claim. The main reason for the confusion is the fact that in order to make the claim logically precise, it must be transformed in a way which destroys its informal value. Part of this transformation is a clear distinction between the Turing Machine as a mathematical object and a machine as a physical device.

Nowadays, in contemporary sports studies scarce attention is devoted to studying the referee and his/her functions in light of the philosophical and pedagogical approach. For this reason, the main aim of this study is to use a hermeneutical philosophic methodology to reflect on the role and functions of this figure, and to show his or her importance in preserving the intrinsic values of sport in front of youth and society. Starting with a historical analysis of the referee and the sport judge in ancient Greek athletics, this study will highlight how such this important figure has always been a key element of competitive sport. This study will demonstrate that refereeing is a practice that needs a specific set of hermeneutical skills and the development of complex pedagogical knowledge and ways of acting. It will also define the concept of “refereeing” in light of a pedagogical approach demonstrating that this practice is, fundamentally, a communicative action implying an ethical and hermeneutical dimension of the referee as a critical-reflective professional committed to enforcing sport’s rules and values. In conclusion, the study will stress the importance of looking at referees and sport judges not as a mere technicians and evaluators of performances in competitions but as educators whose specific knowledge must be developed in all of the courses for their training and education.

Tematem tekstu jest hermeneutyka, ale w bardzo konkretnym ujęciu: widziana nie tyle od wewnątrz, czyli od strony własnej tradycji, ale niejako od zewnątrz, czyli od strony jej krytyków. Wśród tych krytyków najważniejszą rolę odgrywają F. A. Kittler oraz H. U. Gumbrecht, ale wspomina się również o J. Derridzie oraz J. Habermasie. Krytyka hermeneutyki opisana jest tu w swym najbardziej źródłowym aspekcie: jako odrzucenie zapośredniczenia oraz pragnienie bezpośredniości. Autor artykułu zwraca uwagę na afektywny wymiar tej krytyki: przebiega ona od odczucia znużenia, przez znużenie samym znużeniem, do czegoś, co można by nazwać pożądaniem nowego wigoru

EN

The subject of the paper is hermeneutics, though understood in a very specific way, namely not from the inside, from the side of its own tradition, but somehow from the outside—from the side of the critics. Among the critics, the most crucial role are played by F. A. Kittler and H. U. Gumbrecht, though J. Derrida and J. Habermas are also referred to. Criticism of hermeneutics is described in its most source aspect as rejection of intermediary and desire to immediacy. The author of the article pays attention to affective dimension of criticism: the dimension runs from the feeling of weariness, through weariness by weariness itself, and leads to something which may be called desire of fresh vigour.

When we talk about the definition of “religious experience”, even in a theological approach, we can see justified ambivalence. The centuries-long reflection on this issue, from the analysis of biblical texts to patristic thought, the reflections of theologians, and the decisions of the Church’s Teacher’s Office, leads to a multiplicity and variety of conclusions. However, the leaps of development and changes with the category of experience do not contradict Revelation. The article does not exhaust the issue of religious experience in its entirety, but it does give a clear signal of the importance of the problem and contributes to further research in philosophy, psychology, and theology. The text presents the results of the research, which gives the possibility to apply them to contemporary theological thought. It can be seen that religious experience is not something static and finite, but is something dynamic and multidimensional.

Along Wolfgang Iser’s considerations-formulated in his work entitled The Range of Interpretation-we can speak about translation whenever a shift of levels/registers takes place. Literary interpretation is essentially an act of translation. As Iser points out, the register to which interpretation translates always depends on the subject matter that is translated. Translation does not repeat its subject matter, making it redundant, but transposes it into another register while the subject matter itself is also tailored by the interpretive register. The presentation aims to discuss the question of translatability in relation to the hermeneutical concept of application, and proposes to rethink the issue of change of the medium of artistic expression in the light of the concept of artistic reproduction as posited by Hans-Georg Gadamer’s hermeneutics in his seminal work Truth and Method.

This article is a review of the book by P. Abriszewska Literacka hermeneutyka Cypriana Norwida [Cyprian Norwid’s literary hermeneutics]. The book discusses the previous research of the issue, taken in the context of the Romantic, the 19th-century and the 20-th century hermeneutic thought. The review focuses on the reconstruction of the diversified and multilateral hermeneutic approaches to Norwid’s works proposed by the author of the publication. These hermeneutic approaches are linked with culture, literature, history and – to the smallest extent – with nature; all of them being part of the poet’s oeuvre.

The role of categorization in understanding

In this article, I am examining the role of categorization in understanding. The problem arises from well-known distinction between explanation and understanding, which has been for a century pursued in hermeneutic tradition. Categorization belongs to explanatory endeavor and its role in understanding is unclear. In order to delimit the scope of inquiry I am focusing on the weakest kind of categorization, so called categorization ad hoc. I am examining the hypothesis to the effect that categorization plays its role in hermeneutic circle as some sort of pre-understanding. Eventually, however, I reject this hypothesis. It is because it leads to hermeneutic paradox: The notion of pre-understanding has a meaning only in the context of full-fledged understanding, which is an unattainable ideal. Such ideal cannot be used as a personal criterion of the quality of one’s understanding. There is a tension between the feeling of understanding and the scarcity of personal means to justify this feeling. I am suggesting that similar, albeit weaker effect occurs also in more elaborate, scientific categorizations. What is really wrong in the passage from categorization to understanding is some form of self-understanding: We do not know whether we understand better, or at all when we put some categorical order onto our experience. We do not seem to have the required meta-understanding.
