        The essay analyses the difference between Hans-Georg Gadamer's and Alasdair MacIntyre's conceptions of hermeneutic philosophy, on the one hand, and Nietzschean genealogy, on the other. It argues that Ricoeur's famous distinction between 'hermeneutics of faith' and 'hermeneutics of suspicion' in the light of the ontological reading of Nietzsche's genealogy is misleading. Rather than trying to understand Nietzsche's philosophy as the hermeneutics of suspicion, it is more accurate to see Nietzsche's and Foucault's interpretive philosophy in terms of genealogy. The contrast between Gadamerian hermeneutics and Nietzschean genealogy, the one hand, as well as reading Gadamer hermeneutics in the light of MacIntyre's conception of tradition-constituted and tradition-constitutive philosophical inquiry, on the other, allow us to formulate an alternative conception of hermeneutics. The essay argues that hermeneutics is inevitably linked to tradition: hermeneutics depend on and draws its moral and intellectual resources from tradition as well as determines and continues tradition further.
        Straipsnyje analizuojami Hanso Georgo Gadamerio ir Alasdairo MacIntyre'o hermeneutinės filosofijos koncepcijos bei Nietzsche's genealogijos skirtumai. Teigiama, kad Ricoeuro pagarsėjusi skirtis tarp tikėjimo ir įtarumo hermeneutikų klaidina, jei Nietzsche's genealogija suprantama ir interpretuojama ontologiškai. Užuot Nietzsche's filosofiją supratus kaip įtarumo hermeneutiką, kur kas tikslingiau Nietzsche's ir Foucault interpretacinę filosofiją suprasti taip, kaip ją supranta patys autoriai, t. y. kaip genealogiją. Atskiriant gadamerišką hermeneutiką ir nyčišką genealogiją ir perinterpretuojant Gadamerio hermeneutiką MacIntyre'o tradicijos-nulemtos ir tradiciją-formuojančios filosofijos koncepcijos plotmėje, galima suformuluoti alternatyvią hermeneutikos sampratą. Straipsnyje teigiama, kad hermeneutika turi būti suprantama kaip tiesiogiai susijusi su tradicija, t. y. hermeneutika ne tik moraline ir intelektualine prasme priklauso nuo tradicijos, bet ir leidžia ją tęsti.
