Description
Institution and Interpretation by Samuel Weber explores the complex relationship between institutions and interpretation. This thought-provoking work challenges traditional views of institutions as static entities, instead revealing them to be dynamic systems that rely on interpretive practices to consolidate their authority. Weber's essays examine a range of topics, including the role of psychoanalysis in hermeneutics, the future of the university and humanities, and the concept of "repetition" in Kierkegaard's philosophy. Through his rigorous analysis, Weber sheds new light on the intricate dynamics between institutions and interpretation. This revised edition includes six additional essays, one previously unpublished, offering a comprehensive understanding of this critical topic.
