BARCENAS, Ramón. La confrontación de ontología y epistemología en el pensamiento gadameriano. Valenciana [online]. 2012, vol.5, n.9, pp.7-21. ISSN 2007-2538.

Heidegger formulates one of the most radical theses in the philosophy of the twenty century: the distinction between the studies on specific entities and those on Being itself (ontology). This thesis shows the essential difference between epistemology and ontological hermeneu-tics, since the first deals with objectivity, while the second worries about Being. Gadamer's philosophy, which holds that true understanding takes place dialogically, represents one of the most important efforts to draw near these two divorced positions. This paper analyzes in what sense Gadamer's attempt to confront ontology with epistemology takes place dialogically.

Palabras llave : Ontology; hermeneutics; understanding; dialogue; epistemology.
