Ecrits et conférences  2. Herméneutique

                         

Paul Ricoeur's contribution to hermeneutics is considerable. Like the first volume of his Ecrits et Conférences, this one, entitled Hermeneutics, bring together in one volume, texts  that have become difficult to locate and some which, having been published in other languages, have not yet been read by French readers. The manuscripts of these texts are to be found in the archives. These are texts that were written alongside his major works and they permit us to see the development of his research.

The edition, edited by Nicola Stricker and Daniel Frey is particularly thoughtful and educational/informative ; they seek to draw out the connections with Ricoeur's major works.
