{"product_id":"the-philosophy-of-gadamer-jean-grondin-9780773524705","title":"The Philosophy of Gadamer","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe ideas of German philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer have had considerable influence both in their own right, as the leading modern exposition of philosophical hermeneutics, and in interpreting the works of others, especially Heidegger, Hegel, and Plato. Jean Grondin provides an authoritative and clear presentation of Gadamer's thought. Centering his interpretation around the seminal Truth and Method, he lays out Gadamer's key themes of method, humanism, aesthetic judgement, truth, and the work of history. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGrondin situates Gadamer's concerns in the context of traditional philosophical issues, showing, for example, how Gadamer both continues and significantly modifies Descartes' approach to the philosophical problem of method and advances rather than simply follows Heidegger's treatment of the relationship of thinking to language. In doing this Grondin shows that the issues of philosophical hermeneutics are relevant to contemporary concerns in science and history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean Grondin,Kathryn Plant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0773524703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780773524705\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGill-Queen's University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Jean Grondin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48587650597119,"sku":"9780773524705","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7aa99c82-13bf-417a-ae33-76a2f5f01f35.jpg?v=1780169525","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-philosophy-of-gadamer-jean-grondin-9780773524705","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
