Ricoeur Congress 2015

International Congress

The Polyphony of Text and Life: Phenomenological Hermeneutics Ten Years after the Death of Paul Ricoeur

The aim of this Congress is to engage the philosophical work of Paul Ricoeur ten years after his death (May 20, 2005) in its entirety. Our task is to bring together scholars working in philosophical hermeneutics, especially in the legacy of Ricoeur. Conference languages are English and French. We would like to see the wide range of topics being addressed, both, the thorough analysis of Ricouer's oeuvre in its Wirkungsgeschichte, and the further development of his thinking in application to different disciplines, with a special emphasis on the burning questions in contemporary debates.


This Congress is orchestrated around following topics:
1) Paul Ricoeur and the main philosophical trends of the 20th century
2) Ricoeur's philosophy and human sciences
3) Ricoeur's philosophical anthropology: subjectivity and identity
4) Ricoeur and contemporary cultural challenges
5) Philosophy of limits – Ricoeur's contributions to the philosophy of religion
6) Law, justice, and practical wisdom – Ricoeur's philosophy of action
