Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 2000.

This dissertation traces the politics of interpretation in theories of religion and culture. Ever since the "hermeneutic turn" of the 1960s and 1970s, much has been written by philosophers and social scientists alike about the alleged universality of interpretation. However, whether one examines the hermeneutic turn in cultural anthropology, ritual studies, or the history of religions, the metaphysical assumptions of interpretation itself have been left largely unquestioned. The literature affiliated with the hermeneutic turn---from Paul Ricoeur's philosophical hermeneutics to Clifford Geertz's interpretive anthropology---is thus treated in this study as an essentially defensive maneuver, one that emerges as part of wider cultural anxieties over the discursive upheavals signaled by the advent of deconstruction on the American critical scene.

520 $a This dissertation traces the politics of interpretation in theories of religion and culture. Ever since the "hermeneutic turn" of the 1960s and 1970s, much has been written by philosophers and social scientists alike about the alleged universality of interpretation. However, whether one examines the hermeneutic turn in cultural anthropology, ritual studies, or the history of religions, the metaphysical assumptions of interpretation itself have been left largely unquestioned. The literature affiliated with the hermeneutic turn---from Paul Ricoeur's philosophical hermeneutics to Clifford Geertz's interpretive anthropology---is thus treated in this study as an essentially defensive maneuver, one that emerges as part of wider cultural anxieties over the discursive upheavals signaled by the advent of deconstruction on the American critical scene.
520 $a This failure to question the underlying idealisms of interpretation presents a challenge to the contemporary study of religion and culture, one which this dissertation addresses by way of the following questions: How may deconstructive critiques of the interpretive turn be brought to bear on the study of religion and culture in the institution? Is it possible to displace the humanist regime that has policed the study of religion and culture in the United States from the outset? Does the hermeneutic obsession with "symbols and meanings" betray a lingering repression of European colonialisn and imperialism? To what extent does the interpretive imposition of "religion" in colonial forms of knowledge authorize certain global fantasies of European modernity? Finally, what are the political affiliations of the modern will to interpretation itself, a will which consists of the metaphysical desire to give meaning for and by a subject?
520 $a In brief, the argument carried out in this study has implications for the widespread belief in the symbolic or representational nature of social phenomena---according to which everything placed under the sign of interpretation has a meaning. For, as it argues throughout, this hermeneutic belief is both the condition and effect of various idealist renderings of linguistic and historical materiality.
