Abstract

This article highlights an intersection between hermeneutics and education by assuming as its ground the philosophy of Hans-Georg Gadamer. Its objective is to think, in a purposeful manner, how philosophical hermeneutics can, as “practical knowledge”, contribute for discussing the formative-educational experience in its dialogical and transforming feature. Starting from hermeneutics critique over technical-scientific rationality and its expansion through social life, some conceptual-hermeneutical cores (comprehension, experience, tradition and dialogue), which are relevant for the research on teaching-learning process and the educational phenomenon. The thesis “teaching as teaching oneself” is developed as a dialogical experience with the world, effectual fusion of horizons and in the perspective of rethinking formative and methodological dynamics in educational experiences, properly contextualizedes.
