Description
Summary:What is feminist interpretation? How to feministically grasp canonical texts, theories and concepts, all of them emerging from pale male perspective? Can an interpretation be “right” without taking into account the power dynamics that shape the production and transmission of meaning? The paper draws on these questions by focusing on a territory that feminists rarely navigate: that of hermeneutics. The question thus arises as to the extent to which the hermeneutic approach could enter into dialogue with feminism, or even be appropriated by feminists. The paper first reviews some of the feminist interpretations of hermeneutics from the 1980s-1990s, in order to consider then the issues at stake and the relevance of feminist hermeneutics. Such research at the crossroads of hermeneutics and feminism could contribute to better situate, if not widen, the boundaries of feminist traductology, of which feminist hermeneutics would be an allied approach.
