Publisher's Synopsis
Incorporating a tour of the past and a proposition for the future, Chung presents a fascinating study of inter civilizational hermeneutics that embraces our modern times and suggests the liberative potential of hermeneutical study. Adopting a subtle approach that stays clear of trying to impose upon the reader a simplistic understanding of hermeneutical discourses, Chung instead draws on a host of classical and modern scholars in search of a new and refreshing global hermeneutical theory.
