Quotes
I understand philosophy as the transition from sense to meaning, through cultural and doctrinal mediation, through the structure of pure thought, and through the mediation of practice.
Aspetti e problemi dell'ermeneutica, A. Verri and G. A. Roggerone (editors), Milella, 1988
Philosophy is the hermeneutics of meaning, especially as historical data, so that it becomes significance, that is, decision, through cultural comparison that goes beyond mere memorization, by virtue of evaluation (theoretical moment) and practical-political impact (practical moment). Critical comparison of practical forms, to bring meaning (the data, we might say) to the value of significance.
