Preferred term

hermeneutics, phenomenology, and meaning  

Definition

  • Both hermeneutics and phenomenology have been influential in the development of certain schools of social science as well as in the philosophy of social sciences. Recently, rereadings of certain schools of phenomenology by Anglo-American philosophers and European cognitive scientists have led to a renewed interest in phenomenology, especially in contemporary accounts of embodied cognition.
