Family Relationships, Dialogue, and Philosophy for Children:
2021
The paper deals with the importance of words and dialogue in family education. In the first part, some evidence of an action research is presented – shaped in a hermeneutic phenomenological framework and thanks to the Philosophy for Children method and materials. Then some key words are pointed out, meant as formative goals for parents’ educational support, so as to highlight the importance of dialogue among generations and, mainly, of the ethical responsibility of parents in education.
Hermeneutic Phenomenology meets Transformative Learning
2017
The research methods that have been employed in the latest studies on transformative learning are several. This diversity can be considered as a strength insofar as each method, with its underlying philosophy of research, has contributed to the enhancement of transformative learning, namely disclosing new insights
Between constitution and interpretation: Identity as history
2015
The paper focuses on the possibilities to constitute meaning in the „borderline- situations“ (Jaspers) of the social sphere, such as the loss of validity of orientation within and experience of reality in the socially shared structures of the lifeworld. On the one hand, I will refer to A. Schutz’ and his constitution-analysis of foreign understanding and of shared meaning; on the other hand, I bear onto I. Kertesz literary project to narrate the biography of an Auschwitz-survivor as close to his experiential perspective as possible. I will focus both on the concept of constitution and of interpretation with respect to their enabling of the transcending of a typologized everyday’s world whic…
The problem and the solution of accounting in a text
1993
Abstract An interpretative reading of accounting texts published in management accounting journals is offered. The selected articles were read many times, but the phenomenological hermeneutic description is developed through a process of “three readings.” The first reading proposes that the texts share a pattern of preach: They start with an introduction, describe a failing accounting, and remind the reader that through change, better accounting is achievable. In the second reading it is noticed, however, that the idea of “defining a problem and finding a solution with the help of accounting” receives a very different expression in different articles. Consequently, the third reading suggest…
Exploring nursing competence to care for older patients in municipal in‐patient acute care: A qualitative study

However, competence in complex and advanced care settings must be explored using perspectives which acknowledge the complexity of nurses' performance. Design A phenomenological hermeneutic, qualitative approach with individual in-depth interviews was used. COREQ reporting guidelines have been applied. Methods A sample of eight nurses and two physicians employed in municipal in-patient acute care units (MAUs) we…
The Work of Hermeneutic Phenomenology
2020
This paper is an illustration of the application of a hermeneutic phenomenological study. The theory of meaning and interpretation, drawing on philosophical hermeneutics and the work of Gadamer and Heidegger, and its alignment with phenomenological thought is presented. The paper explains and aims to make visible how key concerns in relation to the fusion of horizons, hermeneutic understanding, hermeneutic circle and hermeneutic phenomenological attitude were implemented. The purpose is to provide practical guidance and illustrate a fully worked up example of hermeneutic phenomenological work as research praxis. This present paper makes a case that hermeneutic phenomenological work is deta…
Reason in Vital Experience in Ortega Y Gasset
1998
Ortega nourished himself from two intellectual sources, Marburg’s Neo Kantianism and Husserl’s Phenomenology. He confesses his link with Kantianism, when he says that for ten years he lived inside Kantian thought. But his thought evolved through the influence of various philosophical trends from the realm of pure philosophy to others nearer to life. In his search for the roots of reason, he passed from pure reason to an impure (vital and historical) form of reason, which we will name globally “the reason of vital experience” in our context.

Interview data were analysed using a phenomenological hermeneutical method inspired by the philosopher Paul Ricoeur. Results Two main themes emerged: being in a receiving role and being in a participating role. The receiving role implies experiences of informational and supportive care from nurses and phys…
