This seminar will examine and compare Hans-Georg Gadamer’s “Hermeneutics” and Jacques Derrida’s “Deconstruction.” Attention will also be paid to the emphasis on hermeneutics in Martin Heidegger’s Being and Time. The seminar discussions will move toward developing a non-violent reading-with hermeneutic theory which features both trust and suspicion.
