Događanje i naracija. Radikalizacija i generalizacija hermeneutike
Geschehen and Narrative. Radicalization and Generalization of Hermeneutic

Summary/Abstract: Contemporary dialogue about hermeneutic, as Riceour interprets it, still shows a vivid interest to make it universal. To go towards this possibility, as to the fundamental task of hermeneutic itself, has been implicitly understood in the phrase “philosophical hermeneutic”. Philosophical hermeneutic was given with Heidegger a radical notion of the “fundamental” hermeneutic, because it turned to “ontological” domain beyond its epistemological and methodological preoccupations. To indend anything less for contemporary hermeneutic could only mean that it is anachronistic. Nevertheless, to not be able to return to the question of “human sciences”, in Ricoeur’s opinion disables any contemporary hermeneutist to stay simply a Heideggerian. Regarding this need to mediate with historical consciousness, we investigate how Ricoeur conceptualize the notion of “narrative”. Narrative and time are two concepts which rest on the same grounds, and their relation becomes even more interesting if we acknowledge Ricoeur’s argument that historiography is not that far away from narrative.
