Abstract

In Hans-Georg Gadamer: On Education, Poetry, and History you along with Graeme Nicholson imply that hermeneutics is not merely theory, but already incorporates practice; it is thus already "applied". You and Nicholson state that "Gadamer's is not the sort of theory that becomes constituted all by itself in the first place, then to find application in some sphere."
