The article examines the practical value of philosophical hermeneutics by H.-G. Gadamer. Reffering to M. Heidegger
who defi ned the concepts of Man and Dasein as belonging to different dimensions of our world and of phenomenology,
author is looking for an examplar that would include real and phenomenological characters simultaneously. So he
offers to see the University as a locus where hermeneutical conversation develops in both dimensions, and the one
related to the ideas of truth, wisdom and thus a channel for common comprehension in the Global Age.
