neural hermeneutics  

Definition

  • The term hermeneutics originally referred to the art of interpreting complex written texts, in particular holy scriptures, which demand considerable skill to reveal their meaning. Hermeneutics is especially relevant to the problem of translation, which, of necessity, requires interpretation of the original text.
