Gadamer's "Truth and Method"

I picked up this tome a few nights ago, and so far from just reading the introduction, I think I'll get a really interesting orientation towards art. There are pages about play and players. (102 - 110)



Here are a few things that struck me in the introduction:

He wants to "demonstrate how much there is of event effective in all understanding." (xxii)

He holds that "the experience of art is the most insistent admonition to scientific consciousness to acknowledge its own limits." (Ibid.)

He wishes to meet the demand for a new critical consciousness. (xxiv)
