Theories of Interpretation and Wertfreiheit
A Textual Path Through the Classics of Hermeneutics
Abstract
This work stems from the need to deepen the reconstruction proposed for the headword “Avalutativity” in a large Dictionary of Hermeneutics (in preparation). The confrontation with the theme of “avalutativity” brings up very relevant and sometimes central questions in the 20th-century philosophical debate: from the relationship between language and experience to that between ontology and epistemology, and from the relationship between philosophy and science to accounts with the Kantian heritage. In order to address the philosophical complexity of the sources, the author develops an internal textual reconstruction of the topic, to get to the bottom of its autonomous theoretical depth.
