Quote by Hans-Georg Gadamer
It was clear to me that the forms of consciousness of our inherited and acquired historical education - aesthetic consciousness and historical consciousness - presented alienated forms of our true historical being.
Summary
This quote suggests that the ways in which we perceive and understand the world, including our aesthetic and historical consciousness, have been influenced by our past and present education. However, the quote implies that these forms of consciousness are not an accurate representation of our true historical nature. It implies a sense of detachment or separation between our inherited and acquired consciousness and our authentic selves as products of history. The quote hints at the need for a deeper understanding and recognition of our true historical being beyond what has been imparted through education.
