Zwischen Hermeneutik und Methodik
Erfahrungen, Anregungen und Beispiele zur Auslegung neutestamentlicher Texte
by Angelika Reichert
The book is meant for those looking for methodological-hermeneutic orientation regarding the interpretation of New Testament texts which demonstrates responsible scholarship and which is attuned to present-day concerns. In general it deals with a method that is governed by each fresh act of reading. The person doing the interpreting observes himself in his perception of the text. He uses obstacles to his understanding in order to selectively and purposefully take up findings of historical-critical research, so that the act of reading can be continued and a dialogue with the sense of the text can be stimulated.
German description: Das Buch wendet sich an alle, die nach methodisch-hermeneutischer Orientierung fur eine wissenschaftlich verantwortbare und gegenwartsrelevante Auslegung neutestamentlicher Texte suchen. Dafur werden in drei Kapiteln Impulse angeboten: 1. personliche Auslegungserfahrungen der Verfasserin, angestossen vor allem durch Werke von R. Bultmann, E. Kasemann, M. Titzmann, K. Weimar und U. Eco, 2. konkrete Anregungen zum Auslegungsverfahren, 3. Auslegungsvorschlage zu drei neutestamentlichen Textabschnitten. Insgesamt geht es um ein Verfahren, das sich vom je aktuellen Lesevorgang her steuern lasst. Die Auslegungsperson beobachtet sich selbst in ihrer Wahrnehmung des Textes. Sie nutzt Verstehenshindernisse, um punktuell und gezielt Ergebnisse historisch-kritischer Forschung aufzugreifen, so dass der Lesevorgang fortgesetzt und eine Auseinandersetzung mit der Textmeinung – oder genauer: mit den eigenen Leseerfahrungen – angebahnt wird. English summary: The book is meant for those looking for methodological-hermeneutic orientation regarding the interpretation of New Testament texts which demonstrates responsible scholarship and which is attuned to present-day concerns. Impulses are offered in three chapters: 1) personal experiences of the author, influenced above all by the works of R. Bultmann, E. Kasemann, M. Titzmann, K. Weimar, and U. Eco; 2) concrete stimuli for a method of interpretation; 3) interpretative suggestions for three passages from the New Testament. In general it deals with a method that is governed by each fresh act of reading. The person doing the interpreting observes himself in his perception of the text. He uses obstacles to his understanding in order to selectively and purposefully take up findings of historical-critical research, so that the act of reading can be continued and a dialogue with the sense of the text – or more precisely: with the interpreter’s own reading experiences – can be stimulated.
