Abstract:
Analyzes Gadamer's views on historical consciousness and the critiques of him by poststructuralist thinkers Lacoue-Labarthe and Lyotard. Discusses the possibility of negative prejudice being a structural component of Gadamer's hermeneutics, and the place of "Auschwitz" (as a symbol for the Holocaust) in the other two philosophers' understanding of history.
