SPECIAL ISSUE On Ricoeur: Justice, Hermeneutics, Responsibility, and Personal Identity
Guest Editors – Peter Langford & Rafe McGregor
The work of Paul Ricoeur is animated by an insistent philosophical engagement with the position and orientation of human existence. An integral aspect of Ricoeur’s philosophical engagement concerns the relationship between individual existence, as a question of personal identity, and co-existence, as a question of social life. This engagement is shaped by a reflexive interpretation – a hermeneutics – of these aspects of human existence in a manner that has been termed a ‘hermeneutics of the human condition’ (Domenico Jervolino, Paul Ricoeur, Une herméneutique de la condition humaine, 2002).
We invite proposals that explore one or more of these themes of this special issue on the work of Paul Ricoeur.
Submissions should be addressed to:
Peter Langford ([email protected]) and Rafe McGregor ([email protected]).
– Abstracts of 300 words (maximum) by 1 January 2025.
– After selection, final papers (10,000 words maximum, including endnotes and references) should be submitted by 1 June 2025.
