Testimony is a central topic in contemporary philosophy, with a vast array of disciplines, from epistemology to testimonial literature, demonstrating considerable interest in it. Among these approaches, phenomenology and hermeneutics offer exemplary ways of capturing essential dimensions of testimony that are often overlooked. This volume explores the fundamental issues at stake in such a hermeneutical phenomenology, by developing new insights into the defining role testimony holds in shaping personal identity and human reality in general. By examining how testimony is engaged in the creation of a common world that includes singular experiences, the eleven essays collected here provide thought-provoking questions for other concerned disciplines, including history, sociology, and ecology.

Gert-Jan van der Heiden is professor of metaphysics at Radboud University in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. He has published on continental philosophy with an emphasis on hermeneutic phenomenology, including The Voice of Misery: A Continental Philosophy of Testimony (2020).

Paul Marinescu is a researcher at the "Alexandru Dragomir" Institute for Philosophy, Romania. He coedited several journal issues and collective volumes devoted to the phenomenology of history, memory, violence, and testimony, including "The Articulation of Phenomenology and Hermeneutics in Paul Ricoeur" (2023).
