HERMENEUTICAL PHENOMENOLOGY
• A research method used in qualitative
research in the fields of education and other
human sciences. It arose out of and remains
closely tied to phenomenological philosophy,
a strand of continent philosophy.
• Phenomenology becomes hermeneutical
when its method is taken to be interpretive
(rather than purely descriptive as a
transcendental phenomenology).
Hermeneutics
• In the study of literary texts, scholars
frequently adhere to a set of rules or a specific
system on which to base their interpretation
(Alfornon 2019).
• The interpretation of nonliterary texts, such as
art or philosophy, may also require adherence
to such a method (Alfornon 2019). - The
specific rules used to interpret and understand
a text are known collectively as hermeneutics
(Alfornon 2019).
Phenomenology - Refers to a
person’s perception of the
meaning of an event, as opposed
to the event as exist externally
to (outside of) that person
(Alfornon 2019).
EXPERIENCE
IS THE BEST
TEACHER.
Lived Experiences of Hermeneutical
Phenomenology
• Lived body- It refers to our physical
body or bodily presence in our
everyday lives, including all that we
feel, reveal, conceal, and share
through our lived body. We are always
present in the world through our body;
as such, it is through our lived body
that we communicate, feel, interact,
and experience the world.
Lived space
It is the existential theme that refers us to
the world or landscape in which human
beings move and find themselves at home.
When we want to understand a person we
ask about his or her world, profession,
interests, background, place of birth and
childhood, etc.
Lived time
• It can be understood as time as we experience
it. This is composed of a subjective
understanding of time as opposed to the more
objective or “factual” time, and it refers to the
ways in which we experience our world on a
temporal level. The way we feel can influence
how we experience time and moments, and
conversely, constraints, freedoms, and demands
placed by time can also affect how we feel.
Lived human relations
Refers to the relations we make and/or
maintain with others in our lifeworld.
Our human relations include the
communications and relationships we
experience with others through the
spaces and interactions we share and
create with them.
• Hermeneutics is the theory and methodology of
interpretation, especially the interpretation of biblical
texts, wisdom literature, and philosophical texts.
Hermeneutics is more than interpretive principles or
methods used when immediate comprehension fails
and includes the art of understanding and
communication.
