Analysis Of Umberto Eco’s Hermeneutic Theory

Umberto Eco put forward the concept of "the Textual Intention" creatively, and treat it as his theory origin. This concept has ternary meaning:(1) Dispel the historic of Hermeneutics, and back to the text.(2) Set up a criterion for text interpretation.(3) Build a dynamic and circulatory interpretation model. This is a process that go forward one by one. Back to the text, he presented the idea that the purpose of text interpretation is to find "the Textual Intention","the Model Author" and "the Model Reader" jointly participate in theory deduction of "the Textual Intention". The former one tries to sketch the contours of textual strategy, while the later one holds the trategy of text. They share "the Textual Intention". Take the text as guide, Eco define the criterion of text interpretation is the inner coherence of the text, and he fully consider the context. At last, around the concept of "the Textual Intention","the Model Author" and "the Model Reader", Umberto Eco’s hermeneutic theory is defined as a dynamic interpretation of the cyclical patterns. Specifically, text intent of this concept seeks to clarify the purpose of the literary text is to find a text strategy, produce a standard readers follow the requirement of the text to read. Standard readers in the process of speculation in the text intention, by means of text syntax and narrative strategy speculate, you can outline standard authors. Standard reader in the text intention of speculation by the syntax of the text means and standard of the performance of a set of symbolic instruction or grammar means a narrative technique or narrative strategy, making the intent of the standard oftext intended to maintain a consistent thing strategy to try to speculate, can be sketched out a standard authors. So we can say that the standard of the holder of the text intent standard embodies the text intent.The theory of the humanities is to proceed from the assumption that the intended conceptualization, objects within the theoretical framework of a value judgment. Umberto Eco’s hermeneutic theory no doubt is the soft humanities theory, which attempts to outline all the possibilities one can include the theoretical framework. But can not jump out of the theory itself closed the limitations. The standard does not have universal applicability, need to constantly absorb new elements and correct. The framework will also be transformed into each other there are conflicting concepts, seek the integrity of the theory being closed. Specific to the theory of Umberto Eco’s Hermeneutics, suring the creative readers and text context in which changes, the work can be multiple interpretations. This contradiction with the established forms of work organization. Umberto Eco and thus return to the origin of the theoretical assumptions of the text, the literature with an open view. Legitimate and effective interpretation to the text the internal coherence of the coordinates, and to interpret as a reference to the context. However, this interpretation is a dynamic process. How to judge between a wide range of interpretations, not simply to borrow the text of the standard, Umberto Eco has returned to the historic home of the theoretical assumptions, the proposed interpretation of the text is a historical choice of the reader to accept the process point of view.Umberto Eco’s interpretation of theoretical with some flaws, text interpretation of the quantitative criteria such as Popper’s falsification principle value judgment there will be chaos. But the flaws do not affect the theory of internal integrity. Umberto Eco also continues to modify their framework into the concept of openness in order to achieve closuie of theory, to maximize the universal applicabllity of the theory. Thus, hermeneutics can be said that Umberto Eco is a successful theoretical attempt.
