Hermeneutics is one of the centre’s fundamental directions: the research of interpretation, understanding and structures of meaning — from philosophical texts to cultural symbols. The direction connects theoretical research with a concrete tradition of debates that the centre has consistently supported.
Events from the archive
- The Symposium “The Hermeneutics of the Idea of Romanian Philosophy” — the defining event of the direction, followed by a collective volume (the call for contributions to the volume).
- CCIIF Lecture Series: the lecture “Kierkegaard did not write anything. Another hermeneutics of the heteronyms” delivered by Ștefan Bârzu (lecture page) and the lecture “Meditation and Affective Constitution in Descartes” delivered by Dragoș Vădan (lecture page).
