Ars Hermeneutica, Limited is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization devoted to scientific research and public education about science. Ars Hermeneutica incorporated in the state of Maryland, USA, in 2004.

The name of the company, which is Latin, translates as "the art of understanding and communication", "understanding" in the sense of "comprehending". The four elements of the company logo symbolize the points of our hermeneutical compass: a candle for enlightenment, a letter for learning, an atom for science, and a wing for communication. The wing is an allusion to the Greek god Hermes, "Mercury" to the Romans, the messenger of the gods and the guy with the wings on his feet. "Hermes" is the root of the word "hermeneutics", a branch of metaphysics dealing with communication and understanding.

More information, including copies of publically available documents, can be found at the company website. Please contact us by e-mail through the Comment Form.
