Hermeneutics

Captions available

The idea

Hermeneutics is the philosophy, theory and practice of interpretation, and it treats human lived experience as a text to be understood.

In practice

A study interpreting what an experience means rather than describing what it is.

Where people slip

Hermeneutics has its own long philosophical history. It is not a technique added to phenomenology.
