MENESES, Adélia Bezerra de. Under the sign of Hermes. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2010, vol.44, n.3, pp.81-91. ISSN 0486-641X.
Considering the "etymology" of Plato's Cratylus for the term Hermeneutics, the complex figure of Hermes (the god in charge of messages, whose main attribute is circulating between worlds) is proposed as a metaphor for the - mercurial… - movement expected from an interpreter. In sequence, founding ideas in literary analysis by master of stylistic criticism Spitzer - who adopts the "hermeneutic circle" (Schleiermacher) and the circular movement of knowledge - are acknowledged. Finally, similarities and differences between the psychoanalytic and literary praxis are enumerated.
Palabras clave : Hermes and hermeneutics; circle of knowledge (Schleiermacher); the detail and the indiciary paradigm.
