Ricoeur as Another by Richard A Cohen

Ricoeur as Another by Richard A Cohen

Cohen and Marsh's volume is divided into two parts, the first primarily involving Ricoeur's thought itself, and the second involving the relation of his thought to that of others, such as Levinas, Rawls, Habermas, Apel, Taylor, and MacIntyre. The contributors also offer detailed examinations of Ricoeur's ethical theory and its ontological implications.

"…for Ricoeur scholars and anyone with an interest in understanding the vector of his later work, this collection should prove to be a valuable resource" — Journal of the British Society of Phenomenology

"Ricoeur's Oneself as Another is a tremendously important work that has received far too little attention in the secondary literature. Here, some of the most important voices in continental philosophy in America address a variety of the questions he raises: subjectivity, intentionality, personal identity, philosophy of action, narrative, alterity, theology, evil, political liberalism, and discourse ethics. Each essay situates Ricoeur's thought within broader philosophical debates." — David M. Kaplan, Polytechnic University

"This is quite simply one of the best volumes on the subject." — Joseph Bien, author of History, Revolution, and Human Nature: Marx's Philosophical Anthropology

"This book represents 'cutting edge' Ricoeur scholarship. An anthology like this should set the standard for the future discussion of Ricoeur's contribution to the philosophical literature of our time." — Brice Wachterhauser, author of Beyond Being: Gadamer's Post-Platonic Hermeneutic Ontology
