Reason, History, Tradition. On Gadamer's Theory of Understanding
 Raška, Štěpán ; Čapek, Jakub (advisor) ; Petříček, Miroslav (referee)
This master thesis aims to present an interpretation of Gadamer's theory of understanding. My interpretation gives an accent firstly on the motive of historicity of all understandings and at the same time her "prejudiceness" (understanding is always associated with some preconditions and it must be understood as circle). Secondly I will stress the Gadamer's concept of tradition. I will explain the tradition just as the immanent structure of historical understanding. In the second part of my text, I will formulate two problems, which are closely related to the Gadamer's theory of understanding. I consider these problems by Gadamer himself as unresolved. These are the problems of freedom on the one hand and the problem of responsibility on the other. In this part of my thesis, I will consider some objections to Gadamer's theory of understanding as well (for example Jürgen Habermas'). In conclusion I will try to take my own position especially to these two problems.
