HERMENEUTICS AND NIHILISM, OR ON THE “LITHUANIAN” IDENTITY OF PHILOSOPHY

Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the hermeneutical tradition in lithuanian philosophy. the issue of the contempo¬rary hermeneutical thinking conclusions is analysed. The aim of the article is to disclose the different possibilities of interpreting the ontological hermeneutics in Lithuanian philosophy. The article discusses textes of Arūnas Sverdiolas, the main representative of hermeneutical thinking in lithuanian philosophy. The so-called “urbanization” of Heidegger’s prov¬ince, made by Sverdiolas in lithuanian philosophy, is juxtaposed to another “possibility” – “materializa¬tion” of Heidegger’s province, impersonated by such different Lithuanian philosophers as A. Šliogeris and T. Sodeika. The article concludes with a discussion of the relationship between hermeneutics and nihilism in G. Vartimo’s philosophy. the insight of this relation¬ship disables the possibility of “whatever” identity of philosophy. Keywords: hermeneutics, nihilism, koiné, “ur¬banization” of Heidegger’s province, identity of phi¬losophy, Lithuanian philosophy.
