Abstract
VELAZQUEZ, José Luis. The appropriation of phronesis (The debate between Gadamer and Tugendhat). Prax. filos. [online]. 2018, n.47, pp.157-167. ISSN 0120-4688. https://doi.org/10.25100/pfilosofica.v0i47.6618.
For Gadamer, the choosing of the concept phronesis has a goal: to unite hermeneutics with Aristotle’s ethics, and to present the problem of the application of moral knowledge as a model of hermeneutics problem. Considering E. Tugendhat’s critical contributions to the matter, in this paper there’ll be an analysis on some difficulties in Gadamer’s approach, which derive from phronesis’ impossibility to properly apply moral knowledge and to justify what is morally valid. Likewise, it will be shown how these difficulties affect comprehension on moral learning procedural structures and the self-reflecting process.
Keywords : phronesis; hermeneutics, ethics; knowledge; moral; learning.
