Reviews"A much needed contribution to a growing area of philosophical awareness....Mueller-Volmer's reader is a well-translated collection of classic primary sources: Schleiermacher, Dilthey, Heidegger, and Gadamer; Boeckh, Bultmann, Habermas, Ingarden, Apel, Humboldt, Droysen, and Chladenius are included as well....The work includes an excellent bibliography, and is highly recommended."--Choice "An extremely valuable collection of readings for anyone interested in hermeneutic theory....Complementing the excellence of the selections is a 57-page introductory essay by the editor, describing the key contributions of each author to hermeneutic theory. It is a sound, well-informed, and critically sharp treatment of the entire tradition."--The European Studies Journal
