Summary:

The inner word in Gadamer's hermeneutics refers to the meaning that exceeds anything explicitly said. This explanation has been subsumed within metaphysical and theological parameters of interpretation with little regard for the implication of Gadamer's turn to the living language for understanding the inner word. Through examining his phenomenology of the inner word, The Inner Voice in Gadamer's Hermeneutics reveals its musical (rhythmic and tonal) dimensions and how they function to harmonize modes of cognition in both the humanities and the sciences. Thus understood, however, the inner word is also suppressed or forgotten by the technological extension of sight-that is, print-and thus requires a turn of the inner ear or auditory disposition. Andrew Fuyarchuk assesses theories of language in evolutionary and cognitive science, and he employs them to account for a dimension of language that is inscribed in the lingual minds of our species. When recalled by the inner ear, this dimension enables us to think such opposing orientations together, as we find in the humanities and sciences. This thinking together is expressed in a double account of an object of inquiry, such as the one Fuyarchuk puts forward about the inner word in Gadamer's philosophical hermeneutics. Book jacket.
