Its central premise is that practical responses have a lot to gain from interpreting people's experience of meaning and the disruption of it. But where does understanding originate from? And what are the possibilities and limitations of interpretation as support for practice? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuspended in the tension between Africa's traumatic past and people's continuing quest for autonomy, African hermeneutics draws on old traditions, adopted ideas and creative reflection. This results in intense intellectual engagement with history and conflict, translation and human nature, epistemic domination and liberation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book explores the role of hermeneutics in African philosophy. By examining its leading thinkers, it offers stimulating perspectives for any reader grappling with interpretation, critique, pluralism, decolonization and politics - in Africa and elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eErnst Wolff is professor at the Institute of Philosophy at the KU Leuven.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 280\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.69 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 15, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47293363126521,"sku":"9789462704831","price":70.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/wnN1AVhd259789462704831_5de678c8-0259-4bfd-b772-5530b7c20460.webp?v=1769177601","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/interpretation-for-liberation-african-philosophical-hermeneutics-paperback-2","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
