L.J.H. Gronouwe (Lucas) MA

Following a successful BA in business administration, Lucas shifted his focus to philosophy, completing both a BA and two MA programs in the field. His research explores the conflict between newly emergent subject-oriented and object-oriented theories of hermeneutic experience and their implications for the role and responsibilities of the interpreter. He specializes in contemporary continental philosophy, particularly the reception of Hans-Georg Gadamer’s hermeneutics within current debates on intercultural dialogue, new realisms and materialisms, and (post)critique.
