Logical Graphs, Iconicity, Interpretation • 1

Posted on October 3, 2021 by Jon Awbrey

If exegesis raised a hermeneutic problem, that is, a problem of interpretation, it is because every reading of a text always takes place within a community, a tradition, or a living current of thought, all of which display presuppositions and … Continue reading →
