Opis

Through a detailed study of Herder's Enlightenment contribution, especially his philosophy of literature, this book offers a new reading of the origins and challenges of modern hermeneutics. The book will appeal to students of eighteenth-century thought and to scholars working in the fields of hermeneutics, aesthetics, and European philosophy.
