Luigi Pareyson (1918-1991) was a seminal Italian philosopher. As a professor at the University of Turin he had many subsequently famous students, including Gianni Vattimo and Umberto Eco. The author of more than twenty ground-breaking books, Pareyson’s work first focused on Existentialism and then on the notion of interpretation. Together with Gadamer and Ricoeur, he can be considered one of the fathers of Hermeneutics This anthology represents the first English translation of his writings. It provides the Anglophone reader with a valuable reconstruction of Pareyson’s philosophical work, from his early writings on Existentialism to his theory of interpretation and his last meditations on the questions of evil and freedom.
