Hans-Georg Gadamer In fact history does not belong to us; but we belong to it. Hans-Georg Gadamer It is one of the primary motives of modern art that it wants to abolish the distance which the viewer, the consumer, the audience maintain vis-a-vis a work of art. Hans-Georg Gadamer It was clear to me that the forms of consciousness of our inherited and acquired historical education - aesthetic consciousness and historical consciousness - presented alienated forms of our true historical being. Hans-Georg Gadamer Long before we understand ourselves through the process of self-examination, we understand ourselves in a self-evident way in the family, society and state in which we live. Hans-Georg Gadamer Nothing exists except through language. Hans-Georg Gadamer The focus of subjectivity is a distorting mirror. Hans-Georg Gadamer The more language is a living operation, the less we are aware of it. Thus it follows from the self-forgetfulness of language that its real being consists in what is said in it. Hans-Georg Gadamer The real being of language is that into which we are taken up when we hear it - what is said. Hans-Georg Gadamer |
