There are throughout Kant's work many propositions concerning to what is today called hermeneutics, i. e., the art or the technique of interpretation. Notwithstanding the clear influence of these propositions on Fr. Schlegel and Schleiermacher, who should be recognized as the founders of modern hermeneutics, they aren't duly taken in account by the historians of hermeneutics. The present paper proposes to recover the historical memory of these connections, in order to attain a fair picture of the development of modern hermeneutics.
