This collection of essays is dedicated to the prolific career of Paul Ricoeur. In his lifetime, Ricoeur made significant contributions to many fields, such as theology, aesthetics, narratology, linguistics, and of course, philosophy. Within philosophy alone, he engaged many currents of thoughts, always providing careful and faithful analyses of philosophers while adding his own unique perspectives. Many essays in this anthology revisit Ricoeur’s own works, carefully placing him in his philosophical context, while providing new interpretations of questions that mattered to Ricoeur, such as imagination, forgiveness, justice, and memory. Other essays, honoring Ricoeur’s own approach, bring him to dialogue with new questions, such as globalization, technology, and national memorials.
Farhang Erfani is assistant professor of philosophy at American University and research associate at the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University in South Africa. His first book was about Jean-Paul Sartre and Paul Ricœur, entitled Aesthetics of Autonomy (Lexington Books, 2011). His second book, Iranian Cinema and Philosophy: Shooting Truth, is forthcoming with Palgrave.
