ontological Hermeneutics

Ontological hermeneutics is a philosophical approach that explores how our understanding of being (ontology) influences and is shaped by the interpretation of texts, symbols, and experiences. It emphasizes that meaning arises through our active engagement with the world and the narratives we construct about existence. Essentially, it considers that our perception of reality and our interpretations are interconnected, revealing deeper insights into human existence by examining how we interpret ourselves and the world around us.
