Abstract(s)
It will be our concern to link the concept of hermeneutics to the dialogic process of
self-discovery. The role art plays in people`s life span. We shall focus on the connection
between two discourses: the discourse of the text, the work of art, and the discourse of
interpretation and the kind of worlds they disclose. The hermeneutical idea of subjectivity
as a dialectic between the self and mediated social meanings will be pointed out as well
as an ethic of the word that language opens up.We shall regard the self-understanding of
man, his self-development, dependent on this dimension of language as a disclosure of
possibility. It is by an understanding of the worlds, opened by language and its symbols
that we may arrive at a better understanding of ourselves as human beings. Art is the
most important human expression; Hermeneutics is an instrument of self-interpretation
and self-evaluation that crosses the dialogical process; which means it is an instrument to psychology as a subjective science.
