Title: What is understanding in philosophical hermeneutics of Hans-Georg Gadamer

Summary: The goal is to show that Heidegger did not propose to defend a pure subjective philosophy marked by solipsism and apartada in history. Gadamer seeks to rehabilitate a subjectivity that is determined and marked by his world. The world reported by Gadamer is mediated historically and interpreted through language. The great gadameriano is the effort of overcoming the philosophy marked by subjectivity (pure) with the proposal of a philosophical hermeneutics which seeks to rehabilitate the tradition and their preconceptions, where the subject is in fact subject.
