Abstract

[My personal life story described in chapter 1 gives an insight as to the reason that my particular hermeneutic has two distinct aspects to it. This chapter addresses the first—that of an empathic reading strategy. The aim here is twofold: one, to generate an appropriate and rigorous definition of empathy. Two, based on the generated definition and building on empathy research that includes neuroscientists’ recent important discoveries, to formulate a framework for an empathic reading. Or to put it differently, to provide an empathie hermeneutical “toolbox.”]
