Rezensionen
Quite possibly the single most comprehensive treatment of philosophical hermeneutics available in English, this volume includes contributions by a diverse body of international scholars on nearly every aspect, figure, and historical period of this multifaceted tradition. ... [T] his useful volume - with its incredibly ambitious vision - is impressive in terms of both scope and depth. Summing Up: Highly recommended." - CHOICE

"Malpas and Gander have assembled an outstanding array of essays on hermeneutics by the leading theorists and practitioners of our day. Breathtaking in scope and depth, these essays situate hermeneutics at the center of ongoing dialogue between disciplines and traditions, and introduce readers to thinkers, topics, and debates without sacrificing the rigour of genuine philosophical thinking. I believe that this collection will come to be seen as the very best companion to hermeneutical thinking for our generation." - Charles Bambach, University of Texas-Dallas, USA

"This Companion is impressive in scope and unique in the diversity of the perspectives represented in it. Thanks to the high quality of the individual chapters and its inclusive view of the field, the volume should become the standard reference work on philosophically oriented hermeneutics." - Steven Crowell, Rice University, USA
