This broad relation of the humanities to social existence might be
considered an external application of Gadamer’s thought, one of the
many ways in which hermeneutics is currently being taken up by other
disciplines.25 Yet since historical effect, on Gadamer’s conception, is a
universal characteristic of human hermeneutic situatedness, it is present
wherever we engage in or draw on experience. Moreover, Gadamer himself stressed the expansion of hermeneutics beyond the sphere of philosophy and the humanities into issues of social reason and political discourse, such that these applications are actually endemic to hermeneutic
practice itself. In this respect, the present work aims to make explicit
some of the core theoretical commitments of Gadamer’s thought, to
synthesize strains that weave throughout his corpus, and to underscore
their practical ramifications. It ultimately treats historicity as an effect
that pervades human conduct and that accordingly poses to everyone a
reflective and ethical task.
