Hermeneutics as a Theory of Understanding

Focusing on the philosophical and theological foundations of understanding, this primer explores hermeneutics and its societal and historical significance. Rather than presenting new methodologies, it emphasizes the interrelations and functions of various interpretative projects, particularly concerning ancient texts like the Bible. Petr Pokorný's work serves as both an educational resource for students and a scholarly monograph, offering fresh perspectives in hermeneutical discourse.
