[The teaching of understanding as science].
The author mentions and cites two documents: the first being part of a scientific treatise on deafness, the second part of a medical report. These are the starting points from which the difference between explaining and understanding (Dilthey) is interpreted and illustrated, including points that go beyond the general use of these two terms.--Following the interpretation of the two processes, explaining and understanding, the danger is demonstrated which comes along by mixing up the two ways of coming along with problems, that is to say, using explanations for the domain of understanding and vice-versa. Understanding is not less a realm of science than explaining. On the other hand, the use of explanations in a situation where understanding is required, is as unscientific as is an understanding that oversteps its methodology.
