Interpretation and Being

Cornelius Castoriadis at La Trobe University, jklooger{at}bigpond.com

Despite Castoriadis’s animosity towards the idea that his work has anything to do with hermeneutics, it does. In this article I endeavor to expose the hermeneutical dimension inherent to Castoriadis’s work and to explore some of the hermeneutical problems which his work opens up. This leads me into discussions of such matters as the relationship between the stratification of Being and its exploration, the nature of ensemblization and the ensidic dimension of Being, and the nature and significance of determination in the human and particularly the social-historical realm.

Key Words: being • determinacy • ensemblization • hermeneutics • interpretation
