诠释的界限

The Boundary of Interpretation

"文本诠释到底有没有界限"是1990年丹纳讲座上的关键问题。首先肯定的是诠释的界限是存在的;其次,想要理解文本的真正意义需要在文本、读者和作者之间寻找一个平衡点来作为诠释的界限;最后,诠释的界限不是一成不变的,它可能会随着时间、历史、语言等强制因素的影响而发生改变。

The key issue in the 1990 Tanner Lecture is ＂whether there is a boundary in the interpretation of the text＂. First of all, it is no doubt that the boundary of interpretation is subsistent;in addition, it is necessary to look for a balance among the text, the reader and the author as the boundary of interpretation to understand the real meaning of the text; Finally, the boundary of interpretation is not immutable. It will change with the influence of time, history, language and other coercive factors.
