ontological relevance of architecture on Gadamer’s thought

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In the first part of Truth and Method, Gadamer discusses art as one of the privileged spheres where truth occurs alternatively to the established scientific model. To describe elements of the experience of truth in the work of art, Gadamer presents architecture as a model because the same understanding of truth peculiarly occurs in it. In other words, the hermeneutic experience in architecture is a paradigm to explain a fair questioning of the event of understanding inserted in the ethical-practical sphere of life. This article aims to analyze Gadamer's approach to architecture, affirming its philosophically relevant character within the structure of Gadamer's thought. Thus, considering architectural works, we can perceive hermeneutic traits that support thought experiences that do not submit to the representative model of science, but, on the contrary, contest it.
