Lire, interpréter, déconstruire : de Machiavel à Gadamer

Lire un texte, ce n’est pas extraire des données : c’est entrer dans un dialogue avec lui, examiner ses présupposés, ses non-dits et sa grammaire. De Ricœur à Derrida, de Wittgenstein à Gadamer, le sens apparaît comme une relation vivante, jamais comme une évidence brute. #Hermeneutics #Deconstruction #Wittgenstein #Gadamer #Philosophy L’idée de départ est simple : lire n’est pas consommer de l’information, mais…

Poor Jesus.

Jesus wrote nothing.

Everything we have is filtered through others:
Paul, perhaps the founder of Christianity, who never met him,
Evangelists who wrote decades later,
Churches, who interpreted,
Cult leaders...

The filter never serves the filtered.

»The Earth Is Flat«
by Sune Selsbæk-Reitz

»[...] Flatness was intuitive. It matched what you saw. What you felt. What you could prove with your own two eyes.

And that’s the thing. Most people didn’t believe the Earth was flat because they were stupid. They believed it because it looked right.«

And so does AI to many people.

Only downside is that it was published on LinkedIn (walled garden) and Substack (Andreessen Horowitz) ...

Philosophers, literary scholars & others skilled in #hermeneutics & similar techniques: where can I find a good, open-source introduction to hermeneutics of suspicion?
My dodgy brain is not at its best today and everything I find that looks useful is paywalled. 🤬

I maintain that the most interesting epoch of Christianity was during the first 3 centuries and then it proceeded to get co-opted by power, and everything - EVERYTHING - went downhill from there.

"Hey fam! So like, Nathan had to tell King David some MAJOR tea. He said 'Listen up! God picked YOU to be king, rescued you from all that drama, and gave you everything. But you went and did him dirty after all that? Not cool, bestie, not cool.' 💯👑"

2 Samuel 12:7, my favorite line of scripture in the KJV Bible

#hermeneutics

In Laodicea, the water supply arrived through an aqueduct lukewarm and unpalatable.

“I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth”.

Revelation 3:15-16

Now ya feel justified to do wut they told ya, won’t ya

Learning —

Rules in a knowledge base, as far as their effective content goes, can be obtained by any mode of inference. For example, consider a proposition of the following form.

• B ⇒ A, Just Before it rains, the Air is cool.

Such a proposition is usually induced from a consideration of many past events. The inductive inference may be observed to fit the following pattern.

• Case : C ⇒ B, In Certain events, it is just Before it rains.
• Fact : C ⇒ A, In Certain events, the Air is cool.
────────────────────────────────────
• Rule : B ⇒ A, Just Before it rains, the Air is cool.

However, the same proposition could also be abduced as an explanation of a singular occurrence or deduced as a conclusion of a prior theory.

Inquiry and Induction —

To understand the bearing of inductive reasoning on the closing phases of inquiry there are a couple of observations we should make.

• Smaller inquiries are typically woven into larger inquiries, whether the whole pattern of inquiry is carried on by a single agent or by a complex community.

• There are several ways particular instances of inquiry are related to ongoing inquiries at larger scales. Three modes of interaction between component inquiries and compound inquiries may be described under the headings of Learning, Transfer, and Testing of Rules.

Inquiry and Inference —

If we follow Dewey's “Sign of Rain” story far enough to consider the import of thought for action, we realize the subsequent conduct of the interpreter, progressing up through the natural conclusion of the episode — the quickening steps, the seeking of shelter in time to escape the rain — all those acts amount to a series of further interpretants for the initially recognized signs of rain and the first impressions of the actual case. Just as critical reflection develops the positive and negative signs which gather about an idea, pragmatic interpretation explores the consequential and contrasting actions which give effective and testable meaning to a person's belief in it.

Interpretation and Inquiry —

To illustrate the role of sign relations in inquiry we begin with Dewey's elegant and simple example of reflective thinking in everyday life.

❝A man is walking on a warm day. The sky was clear the last time he observed it; but presently he notes, while occupied primarily with other things, that the air is cooler. It occurs to him that it is probably going to rain; looking up, he sees a dark cloud between him and the sun, and he then quickens his steps. What, if anything, in such a situation can be called thought? Neither the act of walking nor the noting of the cold is a thought. Walking is one direction of activity; looking and noting are other modes of activity. The likelihood that it will rain is, however, something suggested. The pedestrian feels the cold; he thinks of clouds and a coming shower.❞ (John Dewey, How We Think, 6–7).
