"Aesthetic distance is not separation but a way of opening ourselves to the transformative power of the artwork."
More from Gadamer, Hans-Georg
"Understanding is not a state of rest but a state of play."
"Language is the universal medium in which understanding itself is realized."
"Genuine historical thinking must think away the distance and difference of the times."
"The hermeneutic experience is concerned with the otherness of the other."
