What is Hermeneutics

The etymological origin of the word ‘hermeneutics’ is identified with ‘Hermes’, the mythological Greek deity whose role was that of a messenger of the gods or mediator between gods (Henry Virkler, 2007, p.15). Besides being mediator between the goods themselves and goods and humanity, Hermes led souls to the underworld upon death, is the inventor of language and speech, is an interpreter, a liar, a thief and a trickster (Grondin, Jean, 1994, p. 2). These multiple roles make Hermes an ideal representative of Hermeneutics, for, as Socrates noted, words have the power to reveal or conceal, thus promoting the message either in an ambiguous way or in a clear way (Couzens-Hoy, David 1981, p.10-20). The Greek view of language as consisting of signs that could lead to truth or falsehood defines the very essence of Hermes, who is said to relish the uneasiness of the messaged.
