Summary/Abstract: The first attempts at systematic consideration of interpretation phenomenon are associated with the dialogues of a young rhapsode Ion and Socrates. Philosophy, however, does not claim to be the only discipline interested in the art of interpretation. Other fields, including anthropology, religionistics, art and last but not least philosophy, take interest in its potential. Malleability of interpretation act varies to the extent that philosophy rests upon wisdom, anthropology upon a human being, religious studies upon the manifestation of a spirit and its environment, art upon beauty and theology upon God. However, their common denominator is always an unchangeable hermeneutic nature inherent in astonishment at comprehension. In this article I would like to outline not only the systematic structure of interpretation procedures, but also their potential and impact. Primarily, I intend to draw on the dynamics of hermeneutical acts whose power arises from subjective regard of human spirit which means we are to apply phenomenological principles. In order to clarify my starting point I will shortly mention the evolution of hermeneutics. Subsequently, I will outline the space occupied by hermeneutics and its respective tools. Then I will reveal spatial capacity of human spirit and its synaptic potential. The sharing we are to discover unawares is the basis of interpretation bridges.
