Item description from seller

Scarce paperback, 244 pages, NOT ex-library. Minor handling wear, book looks unread, clean, bright, tight, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps. -- "Fusing horizons without renouncing the rich boundaries of the conflict of interpretations, this volume is organized around an elegant colloquium of philosophers, psychoanalysts, and literary scholars. It establishes a unity in difference by means of a common link: the need to interpret and to pursue the meaning of the interpretative act. United by the common texture of interpretation, the essays here presented give us several perspectives and interesting ways of accessing the complexity of the human condition." (From the review by Luís António Umbelino) -- Contents: Introduction; Hermeneutics and the Indirect Path to Understanding / Andrzej Wiercinski; Hermeneutics and the Unconscious: The Mercurial Play of Interpretation in Phenomenology, Psychoanalysis, and Alchemy / Sean J. McGrath; The Rationality of Belief and the Significance of Prejudgments for the Act of Interpretation / Andrzej Bronk; Paul Ricoeur's Narrative Arc / Boyd Blundell; The Insufficiency of Recollection: The Heritage of Sin and Symbol in Kierkegaard and Lacan / Ashley D.C. Cake; Beauty and Transience: The Aesthetic and Historical Implications of Freud's Concept of Beauty in 'On Transience' / Pawel Dybel; The Evolution of Psychoanalytic Hermeneutics of Literary Work / Edward Fiala; Towards a Better Understanding of the Self: Polish Literature in the Light of Postcolonial Theory / Dariusz Skorczewski; Interpretation, Sense and Value: On the Axiological Consequences of the Problem Undecidability of Literary Interpretation / Andrzej Tyszczyk; Index.…
