Postmodern Developments of Religious Language through Hermeneutics Perspective
Journal Title: Dialogo - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The encounter between hermeneutics and postmodernism gave rise to an extremely interesting vision of the philosophy of religion. Thus, an essential part of recent philosophical hermeneutics claims that the religious phenomenon can be analyzed and described just as a phenomenon marked by tradition, culture and a given history. From this perspective, the theory of history is related to the action theory and that of storytelling, since history is a “true” story that reflects the past actions of people, ruled by, as Ricoeur sustains, intentions, projects and motives. Mediation through language is joined by cultural and historical mediation: thus, the affections and attitudes are interpreted according to the canons and not in their naked immediacy.
