Wilhelm Dilthey was a German historian, psychologist, sociologist, and hermeneutic philosopher renowned for his contributions to the University of Berlin. He held the prestigious Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel’s Chair in Philosophy and was acknowledged for his multifaceted thinking. Dilthey’s research centered on scientific methodology, historical evidence, and the essence of history as a science. Although sometimes labeled as an empiricist, his perspectives on empiricism and experience were unique, diverging from British empiricism and positivism to draw inspiration from German literary and philosophical customs.
