Western hermeneutics originates from the reflection and exploration of text interpretation during the collection of myths and religious text in the ancient Greece and it has strengthened its theoretical contents as the hermeneutics contents through the activities of biblical interpreting in medieval time.Under the background of “discovery of human” and the wide spread of science and ration in the Renaissance time,the awareness of subject and methodology have been waken up.Then,hermeneutics starts to break the chains of theology,became the theory establishment of general subject applicability,and continues the reflection and care of “human” from the general pursuit.The general hermeneutics of Schleiermacher has made hermeneutics obtain the true universal significance,and shown his understanding of the overall individual life(Ganzen seines Lebnes).The hermeneutics that Dilthey advocates from the spiritual science has revealed the internal connection between the universality of hermeneutics and the basic understanding problems of social science,emphasizing the internal relationship between “readers towards authors” and “self-understanding of human”,strengthening hermeneutics as the theoretical pursuit of scientific methodology.After further reflection of basic hermeneutics problems by Heidegger and Gadamer,hermeneutics has turned to ontology from methodology and completed the founding and reconstruction of modern hermeneutics.Before the ontology of hermeneutics turned,the “understanding” problems have been placed in the aspect of psychological method and human spiritual transcendence.making the readers understand the innovation spirit of the authors.In the background of modern metaphysics,this thinking mode modern bridges the binary separation relationship,and treat the construction of scientific methodology as the only goal of hermeneutics in the process of focusing on science and ration in the industrial time.With the care of metaphysics of human spiritual transcendence,hermeneutics forgets the reflection of problems,such as “understanding what is possible”.The turn of hermeneutics in the 20 th century hopes to go beyond the thinking style of binary separation of modern metaphysics by the exploration of basic problems of hermeneutics,and realize the metaphysics reconstruction of modern hermeneutics in the founding of hermeneutics metaphysics.The existentialism analysis of Dasein and practical hermeneutics of Heidegger starts the turning of hermeneutics ontology.During this process,Heidegger,by the ontological analysis of Dasein,has turned the significance of “understanding” from understanding behavior that the subject has towards object to the existence of people,thus laying the existing foundation of hermeneutics.Also by the ontological analysis and practical hermeneutics,Heidegger has changed the “understanding” from the backtrace that readers have from the psychological method towards the creative spirit of the authors to the unlimited feasibility of understanding realization of Dasein at presence,thus laying the time foundation of hermeneutics.Gadamer's "history of effects" and Paul Ricoeur's narrative history have revealed that,from the obstacles that must be overcome,history has become the historical origins that might exist in a creative way,thus laying the historical foundation of hermeneutics.During the founding process,scholars try to reveal the internal connection between natural science and humanities(mental science)in the aspect of hermeneutics.By showing the dialectical relationship between “instruction”and “understanding”,Paul Ricoeur reveals the dialectical unification between natural science and humanities in the research methods.This relationship is not exclusive,instead,it is the complementary dialectical relationship between the complementarity and the premise of each other in the understanding of the world and itself.Besides,through the argumentation of the superiority of “being”,Paul Ricoeur injects the contents of understanding into the pure subjective metaphysical “thinking”,making the existence of“being” and the possibility of “understanding” have obtained the basic ontological support in the field of hermeneutics.In the ontological aspect of “really is true”,Paul Ricoeur has accomplished the metaphysical foundation of “really is understanding”.Western hermeneutics has gained the internal drive of theoretical establishment in the soil of western philosophy.It has gradually improved its own theoretical significance with the care of metaphysics thoughts,and through the process of metaphysical self-criticism and founding,western hermeneutics has completed the turning of ontology and reconstruction of metaphysics,and itself shows mutual care in each period of development logic.Yet in this process,western hermeneutics has absorbed the contentsof metaphysics in each time,in the meantime,it has heterogeneity developing in itself under the influence of duality of ancient Greece.In practice,the heterogeneity continues to collide and blend in the theory of hermeneutics,presenting the theory of hermeneutics with historical inheritance and common diversity.Furthermore,it has expanded the theory when showing diversity,and promoted the continuous thinking of “understanding”from mankind.People have completed mastering the cultural contents and spirit of time during this thinking process.From this perspective,the history of hermeneutics is understanding and interpretation the spirit of time and content of culture.While paying attention to natural world,people cannot lose the pursuit of beauty.These two factors play equal important role in the completeness of life,and this is also the significance of accomplishing the foundation of metaphysics in new dimension.This thesis aims to analyze the formation and development of hermeneutics under the “understanding” problem of western philosophy in the formation and logic of western hermeneutics.It attempts to study the interpretation method of ancient Greek philology and religious classics,and describe the original modality and appeal of hermeneutics theory.It studies the subject awareness of western hermeneutics logical progress in the background of “finding humanity” of Renaissance.It reflects on the theory appeal in the formation of hermeneutics methodology during the development of modern science and ration and explores the founding significance of the care of “of human” among the general appeal of hermeneutics.In the turning of modern hermeneutics,it considers the founding significance of “finiteness of human” in the aspect of hermeneutics,thus digging the theoretical value of hermeneutics ontology change.In exploring the founding significance of western hermeneutics,this thesis focuses on the internal connection of western hermeneutics and metaphysics development logic,and summarizes the logical train of thoughts of hermeneutics theory and traditional western spiritual culture,thus enlightening the future development and theory establishment of Chinese hermeneutics.
