Introduction to Theory of Literature (ENGL 300)
In this lecture, Professor Paul Fry examines acts of reading and interpretation by way of the theory of hermeneutics. The origins of hermeneutic thought are traced through Western literature. The mechanics of hermeneutics, including the idea of a hermeneutic circle, are explored in detail with reference to the works of Hans-George Gadamer, Martin Heidegger, and E. D. Hirsch. Particular attention is paid to the emergence of concepts of "historicism" and "historicality" and their relation to hermeneutic theory.

What are Hermeneutics? Hermeneutics may sound like a complicated term or theory but it really isn't. Let me explain. Hermeneutics comes from the Greek word "hermeneuo" which means "to interpret." Hermeneutics is a method of text interpretation based on changes in the world.
Preconceptions can affect our interpretation of what is being communicated through a text. We live in a special time period with a unique culture. Over time, people change, and so does the world and the ways we interpret things. Different time periods have a different culture and will interpret texts differently. If interpretation is based on present culture rather than the culture of author of the text, the interpretation will be different from the author's original intent. We can read recently published books without hermeneutics because it is in our time period and culture. If we were to read a book published thousands of years ago like the Bible, we need hermeneutics to understand the context and have a proper interpretation. In short, good hermeneutics leads to good interpretation while bad hermeneutics leads to bad interpretation.
Here's an example. Let's say you film a documentary of your daily life and put it in a box. A thousand years later someone discoveries it and watches the documentary. Obviously, the person watching it will understand it in a completely different way than intended. The person is in a totally different time period and culture. For example, the words spoken in the video may have changed meanings over the past time. Different time periods have different expressions.
Proper hermeneutics and interpretation comes from taking in the context of the culture and time period the text was written in. To properly interpret ancient texts, we need to take into consideration the cultural and historical context. Only then can we figure out the author's original intent.

The true purpose of Hermeneutics explained in Robotz form.
Story: After reading that ridiculously overly-complicated passage from our book, I went home to relax and rant about how lame it was. I was then greeted by one of my roommates telling me about how she had previously done the class and found it to be really easy to understand.
Right.
Sure. /sarcasm
Below is my video interpretation of the argument that ensued in style of the film "Robots".
Script:
P: Ah, so good of you invite me for a drink today.
G: Well it's a pleasure to have you. Thanks for coming.
P: Yes, yes of course. Well then, how are "things?"
G: Not too bad, thanks.
P: Ah yes, very hermeneutic of you.
G: Very what?
P: Hermeneutic.
G: Uhh, I don't think that's the proper use of it.
P: Oh-- you've heard of it before? -scratches head-
G: Yeah, I learned about it in Humour Studies
P: Humour Studies! Hah! Preposterous. Such a simpleton class such as that could not capture the essence of hermeneutics.
G: Oh yeah? Then what does it mean to you?
P: Well, I.... well, it's very simple really. It's, um. Well, I'm sure your type wouldn't quite understand, but it's quite simple to someone of my stature, you see.
G: No no. Go on, please.
P: Ah yes, well, it err... covers both the first order art and the second order theory of understanding
and interpretation of linguistic and non-linguistic expressions.
G: Huh? Covers what?
P: Well the first order art and the second order theory of under--
G: Yes, yes, I got that. I mean what IS it?
P: Well, it is no longer conceived as a methodological or didactic aid for other disciplines, but turns to the conditions of possibility for symbolic communication as such.
G: Yes, okay but you haven't said what it is.
P: Well you see... Heidegger was mainly interested in Aquinas's notion of Being, and not in his engagement with specifically hermeneutic issues such as the proper authorship of certain pseudo-Aristotelian texts. Presupposing the relative unity of an author's work, Aquinas questions the authenticity of these texts by comparing them to the existing Aristotelian corpus, thus anticipating a critical-philogical procedure that would later emerge as a crucial aspect of Friedich Schleiermacher's notion of grammatical interpretation.
*long pause* Simple, really
G: What the hell are you talking about? You're just rambling on about the origins of this thing and using overly-complicated language. You haven't actually said what it is at all.
P: Yes, well I wouldn't expect you to understand in the first place.
G: Seriously, this is absurd. From what I can put together, you're basically just saying that it's a method of interpretation based on changes in the world around us.
P: Well, yeah, if you want to be so barbaric about it--
G: And that our preconceptions can affect our interpretation of that which is being communicated, such as our prejudices, traditions, openness, imagination, language, and really everything that affects how we perceive input in the world around us.
P: Really, it is so much more complicated than that.
G: No, I believe that you are actually just over-complicating it yourself. People change, the world changes along with that so do the ways in which we interpret things. For example, say you filmed a documentary today about your daily life, relationships, friends, family and religious beliefs and then put it in a time capsule in Taiwan for 2000 years. Obviously, the person watching it 2000 years from now will perceive it in a completely different way. He or she is in a totally different culture, government, religion, region, language and time period. The words may be changed but this person's interpretation of them will be entirely different, and thus, this person's interpretation must come from not their own mind, but yours, in order to understand the meaning.
P: Yes, yes, it's like I was saying: Understanding of the world presupposes a kind of pragmatic know-how that is revealed through the way in which we, without theoretical considerations, orient ourselves in the world.
G: Oh, yes, go on. I'm am listening intently.
P: Errr, well I, errr *pause* um
G: Wait-- are you reading off of notes?!?
P: Well... I...
G: I knew it! You're reading off of notes!! Wait... did you use a thesaurus for this?
P: Poppycock! I used the best thesaurus-- err, I mean, comparisons I could think of.
G: *Doubtful stare*
P: Well I tried my best.
G: Right. Well how about next time, you just use normal words.
P: But that would ruin the whole point!
G: What point?
P: I mean, um--
G: What point?
P: Well, alright. If you really must know, the real purpose of hermeneutics is to act pretentious and smart when really we're not saying anything at all.
G: What? That is stupid.
P: I don't have to take this! I am really smart! I learned hermeneutics in only a day and scored perfect on my IQ test.

Hermeneutics
Hermeneutics (/hɛrməˈnuːtɪks/ or /hɛrməˈnjuːtɪks/) is the philosophy and methodology of text interpretation, especially the interpretation of biblical texts, wisdom literature, and philosophical texts.
Hermeneutics was initially applied to the interpretation, or exegesis, of scripture. It emerged as an ontological methodology for understanding human nature through the work of Friedrich Schleiermacher, Wilhelm Dilthey, Martin Heidegger, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Paul Ricoeur, Northrop Frye, Walter Benjamin, Jacques Derrida and Fredric Jameson. Modern hermeneutics includes both verbal and nonverbal communication as well as semiotics, presuppositions, and preunderstandings.
The terms "hermeneutics" and "exegesis" are sometimes used interchangeably. Hermeneutics is a wider discipline which includes written, verbal, and nonverbal communication. Exegesis focuses primarily upon texts.
Hermeneutic, as a singular noun, refers to some particular method of interpretation (see, in contrast, double hermeneutic).

What are Hermeneutics? Hermeneutics may sound like a complicated term or theory but it really isn't. Let me explain. Hermeneutics comes from the Greek word "hermeneuo" which means "to interpret." Hermeneutics is a method of text interpretation based on changes in the world.
Preconceptions can affect our interpretation of what is being communicated through a text. We live in a special time period with a unique culture. Over time, people change, and so does the world and the ways we interpret things. Different time periods have a different culture and will interpret texts differently. If interpretation is based on present culture rather than the culture of author of the text, the interpretation will be different from the author's original intent. We can read recently published books without hermeneutics because it is in our time period and culture. If we were to read a book published thousands of years ago like the Bible, we need hermeneutics to understand the context and have a proper interpretation. In short, good hermeneutics leads to good interpretation while bad hermeneutics leads to bad interpretation.
Here's an example. Let's say you film a documentary of your daily life and put it in a box. A thousand years later someone discoveries it and watches the documentary. Obviously, the person watching it will understand it in a completely different way than intended. The person is in a totally different time period and culture. For example, the words spoken in the video may have changed meanings over the past time. Different time periods have different expressions.
Proper hermeneutics and interpretation comes from taking in the context of the culture and time period the text was written in. To properly interpret ancient texts, we need to take into consideration the cultural and historical context. Only then can we figure out the author's original intent.

The true purpose of Hermeneutics explained in Robotz form.
Story: After reading that ridiculously overly-complicated passage from our book, I went home to relax and rant about how lame it was. I was then greeted by one of my roommates telling me about how she had previously done the class and found it to be really easy to understand.
Right.
Sure. /sarcasm
Below is my video interpretation of the argument that ensued in style of the film "Robots".
Script:
P: Ah, so good of you invite me for a drink today.
G: Well it's a pleasure to have you. Thanks for coming.
P: Yes, yes of course. Well then, how are "things?"
G: Not too bad, thanks.
P: Ah yes, very hermeneutic of you.
G: Very what?
P: Hermeneutic.
G: Uhh, I don't think that's the proper use of it.
P: Oh-- you've heard of it before? -scratches head-
G: Yeah, I learned about it in Humour Studies
P: Humour Studies! Hah! Preposterous. Such a simpleton class such as that could not capture the essence of hermeneutics.
G: Oh yeah? Then what does it mean to you?
P: Well, I.... well, it's very simple really. It's, um. Well, I'm sure your type wouldn't quite understand, but it's quite simple to someone of my stature, you see.
G: No no. Go on, please.
P: Ah yes, well, it err... covers both the first order art and the second order theory of understanding
and interpretation of linguistic and non-linguistic expressions.
G: Huh? Covers what?
P: Well the first order art and the second order theory of under--
G: Yes, yes, I got that. I mean what IS it?
P: Well, it is no longer conceived as a methodological or didactic aid for other disciplines, but turns to the conditions of possibility for symbolic communication as such.
G: Yes, okay but you haven't said what it is.
P: Well you see... Heidegger was mainly interested in Aquinas's notion of Being, and not in his engagement with specifically hermeneutic issues such as the proper authorship of certain pseudo-Aristotelian texts. Presupposing the relative unity of an author's work, Aquinas questions the authenticity of these texts by comparing them to the existing Aristotelian corpus, thus anticipating a critical-philogical procedure that would later emerge as a crucial aspect of Friedich Schleiermacher's notion of grammatical interpretation.
*long pause* Simple, really
G: What the hell are you talking about? You're just rambling on about the origins of this thing and using overly-complicated language. You haven't actually said what it is at all.
P: Yes, well I wouldn't expect you to understand in the first place.
G: Seriously, this is absurd. From what I can put together, you're basically just saying that it's a method of interpretation based on changes in the world around us.
P: Well, yeah, if you want to be so barbaric about it--
G: And that our preconceptions can affect our interpretation of that which is being communicated, such as our prejudices, traditions, openness, imagination, language, and really everything that affects how we perceive input in the world around us.
P: Really, it is so much more complicated than that.
G: No, I believe that you are actually just over-complicating it yourself. People change, the world changes along with that so do the ways in which we interpret things. For example, say you filmed a documentary today about your daily life, relationships, friends, family and religious beliefs and then put it in a time capsule in Taiwan for 2000 years. Obviously, the person watching it 2000 years from now will perceive it in a completely different way. He or she is in a totally different culture, government, religion, region, language and time period. The words may be changed but this person's interpretation of them will be entirely different, and thus, this person's interpretation must come from not their own mind, but yours, in order to understand the meaning.
P: Yes, yes, it's like I was saying: Understanding of the world presupposes a kind of pragmatic know-how that is revealed through the way in which we, without theoretical considerations, orient ourselves in the world.
G: Oh, yes, go on. I'm am listening intently.
P: Errr, well I, errr *pause* um
G: Wait-- are you reading off of notes?!?
P: Well... I...
G: I knew it! You're reading off of notes!! Wait... did you use a thesaurus for this?
P: Poppycock! I used the best thesaurus-- err, I mean, comparisons I could think of.
G: *Doubtful stare*
P: Well I tried my best.
G: Right. Well how about next time, you just use normal words.
P: But that would ruin the whole point!
G: What point?
P: I mean, um--
G: What point?
P: Well, alright. If you really must know, the real purpose of hermeneutics is to act pretentious and smart when really we're not saying anything at all.
G: What? That is stupid.
P: I don't have to take this! I am really smart! I learned hermeneutics in only a day and scored perfect on my IQ test.

Hermeneutics
Hermeneutics
By the time you've been in the newsagents for half an hour you realise it's not a sitcom. No shiny people with shiny, 27 minute problems or comedy pets / neighbours. There's just school kids and dirt. And a sign about bikes. And even after half an hour in the pub you realise that there's no 45 minute drama there. No one-off special. No recurring, locally themed detective, or vet, seen as a hard drinking, loose cannon by the pencil-necked pencil-pushers back at City Hall. There's just punters minding their business and their drinks. And half an hour in the bookies is worse than soap opera. No banter, no recurring characters. No happily ever after ruined by the end of a contract and a dream of going into musical theatre. Just stale desperation and cigarette smoke. But you suppose that's the point. Not his, but yours. You're not standing there because you don't believe mothers die on the steps of a church. Or that there's an incestuous child growing in the stomach of the girl on the supermarket till. There probably is. In fact, the old guy buying four limes in the grocers has probably been mistaken for a local gangster whilst on holiday in Tenerife, and even then his hotel was probably hilariously still under construction. But the point is, not for you. Not today. And as you're standing there, watching a man fray the corners of his slip with nicotine fingers, you realise it was never about that. You weren't there because you didn't believe it. You weren't there because you wanted to prove him wrong. You were only there because he didn't like art house movies. You were only there because he said they weren't satisfying like a coward as you were leaving. You were only there because you still fucking hate his bastard guts.
