From Text To Action : Essays In Hermeneutics, II - Thryft
From Text To Action : Essays In Hermeneutics, II - Thryft

Understanding interpretation of text and actions.

This book would be a good read for philosophy enthusiasts as Paul Ricoeur redefines and revitalizes hermeneutics. He connects his own theorization with contemporary figures like K.O. Apel and Jurgen Habermas, providing insight on ideology critique. The book also constructs a general theory of interpretation, positioning his work in relation to its own philosophical background.

Description

Incredible originality of thought in areas as vast as phenomenology, religion, hermeneutics, psychoanalysis, intersubjectivity, language, Marxism, and structuralism has made Paul Ricoeur one of the philosophical giants of the twentieth century. The way in which Ricoeur approaches these themes makes his works relevant to the reader he writes with honesty and depth of insight into the core of a problem, and his ability to mark for future thought the very path of philosophical inquiry is nearly unmatched. From Text to Action  is an essential companion to the classic  The Conflict of Interpretations . Here, Ricoeur continues and extends his project of constructing a general theory of interpretation, positioning his work in relation to its philosophical Hegel, Husserl, Gadamer, and Weber. He also responds to contemporary figures like K. O. Apel and Jürgen Habermas, connecting his own theorization of ideology to their critique of ideology. This new edition includes a foreword by Richard Kearney. It and other new editions of Ricoeur's texts published by Northwestern University Press have joined the canon of contemporary continental philosophy and continue to contribute to emergent discussions in the twenty-first century.
