reviewed Interpretation and Overinterpretation on November 10, 2016 Interpretation and Overinterpretation
I haven't read the book yet but I'm giving it 5 stars because Eco looks smashing on the cover.
OK: dope. It's basically the transcript of a conference on the possible limits of interpretation - on whether, basically, when you read a book and try to interpret it you can go batshit crazy or have to stick to some form of human decency. Some scholars advocate limitation, some see books as things to be used rather than interpreted, and some are clearly just happy they have access to the mid-conference buffet.
The introduction makes it clear that the debate was quite heated, and the book becomes an immensely entertaining read if you imagine what was going on while the ideas were discussed.
"... Hermetic semiosis goes too far precisely in the practices of suspicious interpretation, according to principles of facility which appear in all the texts of this tradition."
"GO HOME YOU WOP!"
"LET HIM TALK! LET HIM TALK!"
"NO, HE'S CRAZY!"
