Instead, Pokorn 's principal intention is to define the philosophical and theological premises of individual projects of understanding -- their interrelations, meaning, and function in interpretation, especially that of ancient texts such as the Bible. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePokorn 's work here functions admirably both as a text for students and as a monograph that suggests new paths in hermeneutical discussion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Petr Pokorný\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William B.
