En savoir plus sur le livre

Wilhelm Dilthey emphasizes the paramount importance of understanding as a means to connect with the experiences of others. He defines understanding not as a causal explanation of actions or feelings, but as an empathetic engagement that allows one to internalize the emotions and motivations of another. This approach creates a profound connection, fostering a shared sense of humanity. Dilthey seeks to elevate this concept of understanding into a methodological framework for the humanities, proposing it as essential for the sciences of the spirit.
