Abstract
This article analyzes the relationship between opinion and perspective through an
interdisciplinary approach that integrates hermeneutics, analytic epistemology, social
epistemology, and scientific perspectivism. Drawing on the work of Gadamer, Putnam,
Quine, Goldman, Fricker, and Massimi, it proposes a recursive model in which opinion is
understood as a situated epistemic act and perspective as a dynamic system that
articulates historical horizons, conceptual schemes, belief networks, cognitive processes,
and social structures. The study follows a theoretical-conceptual design appropriate for
the humanities and adapted to the IMRaD format. The results show that opinion is not an
isolated judgment but an update of perspective, and that perspective is transformed
through the historical accumulation of opinions. The article concludes that the
co-constitution of opinion and perspective provides a robust framework for understanding
judgment formation in scientific, social, and hermeneutical contexts.
