This study aims to analyze the relationship between language, knowledge and hermeneutics, through the so-called linguistic and pragmatic turn, in order to contribute with the study of philosophy of and within law and to the comprehension of the proposal of some theoretical patriotic who have been seeking to develop hermeneutic alternatives in face of the interpretational crisis which devastates the national context, such as Lenio Streck and Eros Grau. For such, starting from deductive reasoning, without exhaustive pretension, the paper proposes a historical foreshortening about the evolution of knowledge paradigms in the field of philosophy, going from the philosophy of being (objectivist), passing through the philosophy of consciousness (subjectivist) – both lying in the subject-object scheme – until reaching the philosophy of language, which finally composes a new scheme paved on the subject-subject relation, from the incursion of the pragmatics in the study of language. Lastly, and to contextualize this pragmatic incursion, the contributions of Martin Heidegger and Second Wittgenstein are briefly exposed and the philosophy of language is presented from these philosophers as a widening for the development of a new hermeneutics.Keywords: Linguistic and pragmatic turn, subject-object scheme, Martin Heidegger, Ludwig Wittgenstein.
