The process of understanding the scientific text from the perspective of hermeneutics in foreign studies
This article discusses the use of hermeneutics in foreign studies. The author presents the history of the development of this doctrine from antiquity to the present day. From the point of view of hermeneutics the author describes the process of understanding the text, which consists in the disclosure of its meaning through the implementation of certain actions. Considered this concept in the context of the work of F. Schleiermacher, who considered two basic techniques of text comprehension: compare and devinity. Presents the key concept of hermeneutics - the hermeneutic circle. In the works of M. Heidegger, H. G. Gadamer, the hermeneutic circle is discussed in a methodological and an ontological sense. The article also discussed a "critical hermeneutics" Yu Haberma, which affirms the importance of pre-conscious cognition of reality. Yu Habermas attaches great importance to language communication. U. EKO considers important the principles of hermetic approach to the text, which go against the principles of classical hermeneutics. Next, the article deals with the understanding of hermeneutics in the broad sense (representatives: V. Dilthey, M. Merleau-Ponty, etc.) and narrow (members: M. Heidegger, H. G. Gadamer, G. Widdershoven). And finally, we consider the necessary conditions for the formation of understanding of scientific text which are available in active intellectual activity of the reader; establishing a certain technique of understanding; establishing the logical structure of the scientific text and the nature of the relationship between its components; the presence of "pre-understanding".
