Wilhelm Dilthey: Understanding the Human World
Journal Title: Philosophy and Cosmology - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue
Abstract
This article has the same name as the second volume in a six-volume translation of the major writings of Wilhelm Dilthey, published in Princeton University Press in 1991-1996, for two reasons: 1) to limit our research of key philosophical and psychological writings from the 1890-s, in which Dilthey propagated a descriptive and analytic psychology as a “human science” (Geisteswissenschaft); 2) to emphasize and understand Dilthey’s assertion that the human world was sufficiently different from the natural world that special methods were required for its study; hermeneutics, the deliberate and systematic methodology of interpretation, was the only necessary approach for studying and understanding the human world.
