ABSTRACT

The hermeneutic philosophy developed by Heidegger and Gadamer includes two main elements: one transcendental philosophy, was established as a 'hermeneutic of facticity', and a 'philosophical hermeneutic'; two, the theory of hermeneutics Dilthey, Betti was given a philosophical framework. The central argument of hermeneutic philosophy can best be illustrated by reference to the title of Gadamer's book, Truth and Method. Gadamer's hermeneutic philosophy represents obviously a gigantic re-orientation of hermeneutics by freeing it from the constraints it imposed upon itself in its narrow striving for methodically secured objectivity. Hermeneutic reflection upon the effective-history underlying all thought represents not only a critique of the objectivism of historism but also of the physicalism underlying the ideal of a Unity of science. The physicalism underlying the ideal of a Unity of science without a moment impinges upon the scientific character of the result achieved under the auspices of historism and the positivist logic of science.
