PHRE 355 - Truth and Dialog

This course explores the role of dialog in the acquisition of knowledge. Does dialog create or only uncover the truth; can a hermeneutic view of truth negotiate between absolutism and relativism; and what are the necessary conditions for good - that is, truth-producing - dialog?
