Through a comparative, pluralist and eclectic reading of selected works by Friedrich Schleiermacher (1768-1834){u2013}a German theologian, philologist and philosopher{u2014}and Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd (1943-2010){u2013}an Egyptian literary scholar and philosopher, the proposed study proposes a reformulation of philological hermeneutics that departs from the rich philological practices of the two hermeneuticists, This is conducted through focusing on three critical tropes: 2linguistic analysis,3 2context,3 and 2dialectic3. Based on this hermeneutic, eclectic reading of Schleiermacher and Abu Zayd{u2019}s texts, the study, accordingly, presents a new, reformulated and intercultural 2hermeneutic circle3 that may rival other established reading practices in its pluralism UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
