What is Seeking a Mnemonic Turn: Interior Reflections in Gadamer's Post-Platonic Thought about?

## Seeking a Mnemonic Turn: Interior Reflections in Gadamer's Post-Platonic Thought This paper reflects on trajectories and pathways for philosophical hermeneutics, now, after the death of its founder, Hans-Georg Gadamer in 2002. More specifically, it challenges the notion that Gadamer's thought is simply tied to the linguistic turn of the 20^th^ century. Instead, it considers the possibility that Gadamer's thinking makes for an implicit declaration of its own kind, calling for a __mnemonic turn__ in modern philosophy and present day hermeneutics. Some reference will be made to both rationalist and empiricist models of inquiry insofar as Gadamer attempts to take philosophy beyond, for example, the __Ur__-grammar of Chomsky's linguistic theories, and into a world of post-Platonic memory.
