A provisional and preliminary attempt to show how the formative hermeneutical thinking of Anthony C. Thiselton - once systematized and critiqued - can begin to resolve the major problems found in the discipline of hermeneutics today most notably its varying 'disunities' - theoretical practical and inter-disciplinary.<br /> <br /> This book aims to show that the formative thinking of Anthony C. Thiselton provides valuable insights for a programmatic construction towards a unified hermeneutical theory. This construction provides powerful keys for unlocking six contemporary problems in hermeneutics: disorganization complexity abstraction theoretical disunity on several levels inter-disciplinary polarization and irresponsible interpretation. Robert Knowles' exhaustive analysis engages critically and creatively.
