Career
He is best known for his contributions to hermeneutics, part of a broad interest in interpretation. As a legal theorist, Betti is close to interpretivism. Betti remained in prison for about a month, as decided by the Comitato di Liberazione Nazionale.
In August 1945, Betti was presented to court and absolved of every accusation.
Betti is perhaps best known for his work in hermeneutics. His work influenced the work of East. Doctorate. Hirsch, the chief English-language spokesman for authorial intention.
However, his influence in English has been limited by the lack of translations of his hermeneutic work.
