An Emerging Framework for Human Becoming Criticism

Gail J. Mitchell, RN; PhD

School of Nursing, York University, Toronto, Canada

This column presents a new framework for researchers to consider as a guide when participating in the process of scholarly critique. The framework is aligned with the philosophical view of Gadamerian hermeneutics. The emerging framework, consistent with the human becoming school of thought, builds on ideas from literary theory, specifically reception or reader-response theory, and the human becoming hermeneutic method. Three processes— sketching the horizon of expectation, illuminating artistic disclosure, and enhancing the original with artform—guide reviewers to bring forth the contributions of the researcher and to enhance the researcher’s contribution with artform. The emerging framework will enable researchers to participate in interpretive discourse and to advance the understanding of a scholarly community.

Key Words: hermeneutics • human becoming • literary theory • Parse • scholarly critique
