商品簡介
A study of Lieber's work on legal and political hermeneutics, an area of his work that has been largely ignored. Introduces his life and career, then examines the state of the discipline of hermeneutics as found in Lieber's time, both in the US and Germany. Analyzes Lieber's general theory of hermeneutics and his theory of legal and political hermeneutics and its various applications within law and politics. Shows the relationship of hermeneutics to practical reason, especially ethics and political ethics, and shows Lieber's historical importance as a philosopher who is deserving of more attention and study than has been displayed.
