The Relationship

In this paper I consider Ricœur’s negotiation of the boundary or relationship between philosophy and religion in light of the larger debate in contemporary French philosophy. I suggest that contrasting his way of dealing with the intersection of the two discourses to that of two other French thinkers (Jean-Luc Marion and Michel Henry) illuminates his stance more fully. I begin with a brief outline of Ricœur’s claims about the distinction or relation between the discourses, then reflect on those of Marion and Henry, who although they do not relate them in the same way still together form a significant contrast to Ricœur’s perspective, and conclude with a fuller consideration of Ricœur’s methodology in light of this comparison. I suggest that it is in particular his hermeneutic commitments that lead him both to more rigorous distinctions between discourses and ironically to greater mediation.

Objective Content

Abstract In an unpublished text from the early postwar period, Georges Canguilhem deals with Nietzsche’s maxim “Become who you are!” Is this “apparently contradictory formula of a philosopher full of contradictions” really only seemingly inconsistent? Canguilhem regards it as a norm whose supposed metaphysical or objective content dissolves upon further analysis. So he here discerns a new instance of the same potential confusion he had already addressed in his classical essay on The Normal and the Pathological (1943). According to him, the formula “become who you are!” must not be misunderstood in a naturalistic sense, a tendency from which not even Nietzsche himself, Canguilhem thinks, was entirely free. Besides the French philosophy of his time, his philosophical inquiry into “Become who you are!” critically engages two classic German Nietzsche scholars, Ernst Bertram and Karl Jaspers, as well as the French interpreters of the latter’s philosophy of Existenz, Mikel Dufrenne and Paul Ricœur. Finally, the paper highlights Nietzsche’s specific importance for Canguilhem and the ambivalence in his privileged relationship to the German thinker.

Embodied Action

This chapter examines the reception of Ravaisson’s account of habit in later nineteenth- and twentieth-century French philosophy. The first two sections examine its reception in the work of Albert Lemoine, Léon Dumont, and Henri Bergson. The third section examines its reception in the work of the French phenomenologists and theorists of the lived body, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Paul Ricoeur. The chapter shows how Ravaisson’s account of inclination relates to these notions of the lived body. In conclusion, it shows how contemporary Merleau-Ponty-inspired accounts of pre-reflective, embodied action as a form of ‘coping’ can be extended by Ravaisson’s concern for tendency and inclination in motor habit.

The Relationship

Este trabalho ressalta a relação entre a razão e a experiência no campo de estudo da religião, mostrando suas transformações no contexto do desenvolvimento da filosofia da religião e dos paradigmas da razão. Aponta para a atual crítica à hegemonia da razão e o interesse crescente pelas demais dimensões do psiquismo, em particular através do desenvolvimento do método fenomenológico e de sua abordagem da experiência. Apresenta a renovação da atual fenomenologia francesa, que permite não apenas a revisão crítica do  racionalismo e do positivismo, como também a possibilidade de repensar a relação entre ciência, filosofia e religião. Focaliza os avanços da filosofia reflexiva de Jean Nabert e a contribuição da fenomenologia hermenêutica de Paul Ricoeur para uma nova concepção da filosofia da religião e da alteridade religiosa.Abstract: This work underlines the relationship between reason and experience in the field of religion studies, showing its transformations within the development of the philosophy of religion and the paradigms of reason. It points towards the current criticism concerning the hegemony of reason and towards the growing interest for other psychical dimensions, particularly through the development of the phenomenological method and its approach to experience This article also presents the current renewal of French phenomenology that allows not only the critical revision of rationalism and positivism, but also the possibility to rethink the relationship between philosophy, science and religion. It focuses on the advancements of Jean Nabert’s philosophy and on the contributions of Ricoeur’s hermeneutical phenomenology, leading to a new conception of the philosophy of religion and of religious otherness.

Resumo: O ensino da disciplina de Filosofia constitui no exercício/atividade filosófica na sala de aula, pois através desta atividade buscar-se-á criar, inventar, reinventar e produzir novos saberes e ações que se configurem como uma experiência filosófica. A experiência do filosofar proporciona uma maior flexibilidade entre o pensar e o agir, tendo como finalidade a constituição do si do alunado. Como praticamente a aula de Filosofia no Ensino Médio consiste numa aula expositiva, a relação entre professor e o aluno, entre aquele que “explica” e aquele que “compreende” sugere a busca de algo em comum: interpretar o texto. Por certo, o primeiro e mais elementar trabalho de interpretação é captar aquilo que o autor se propôs ao escrever determinado texto. Por esta razão buscamos investigar quais são as contribuições de uma hermenêutica no Ensino Médio, tendo como finalidade a busca de uma “ferramenta” (hermenêutica) que o professor possa oferecer para seu alunado, proporcionando-lhes um meio de compreender a eles mesmos e o mundo em que estão inseridos, o papel da hermenêutica e sua contribuição para a vida dos alunos é a de auxiliá-los na compreensão da realidade que eles vivenciam, para que possam desenvolver uma melhor vivência em sociedade. Palavras-chave: Apropriação. Filosofar. Hermenêutica. Mundo do Texto. Abstract: The teaching of the discipline of Philosophy constitutes in the exercise/philosophical activity in the classroom, because through this activity will seek to create, invent, reinvent and produce new knowledge and actions that are configured as a philosophical experience. The experience of philosophizing provides a greater flexibility between thinking and acting, having as purpose the constitution of the student's self. As practically the Philosophy class in High School is an expositive class, the relationship between teacher and student, between the one who "explains" and the one who "understands" suggests the search for something in common: to interpret the text. Of course, the first and most elementary work of interpretation is to capture what the author proposed in writing a particular text. For this reason we seek to investigate the contributions of a hermeneutics in High School, aiming at the search for a "tool" (hermeneutics) that the teacher can offer to his / her student, providing them with a way to understand themselves and the the role of hermeneutics and their contribution to students' lives is to help them understand the reality they experience, so that they can develop a better experience in society.

Supreme Being

The feast of Dalok is the highlight of the feast in the series of death-rites performed by Dayak Uud Danum’s tribe in Serawai, District of Sintang, West Borneo. It is the biggest feast celebrated by this tribe. There are plenty of Symbols found in the rites, and they are picturing the relationship among the human beings and also between the people and The Supreme Being, Tahala’. These Symbols are tied each other very closely like a knot. The author of this article is using Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutics to reread and reveal the meaning of symbolical knots which are acceptable to the public.   Pesta Dalok adalah puncak dari rangkaian upacara kematian dalam suku Dayak Uud Danum di Serawai, Kab. Sintang, Kalimantan Barat. Pesta Dalok menjadi pesta terbesar yang dilaksanakan oleh suku ini. Ada begitu banyak simbol dalam ritus-ritus di pesta ini dan semuanya menggambarkan relasi antara sesama manusia maupun antar manusia dengan Realitas Tertinggi, Tahala’. Simbol-simbol ini saling berhubungan dengan sangat erat ibarat sebuah simpul. Penulis menggunakan hermeneutika Paul Ricoeur untuk membaca ulang dan membuka makna dari simpul-simpul simbolik yang dapat diterima oleh masyarakat.

Cette Notion

L'emploi réitéré de la notion de barbarie en lien avec les déchaînements de violence de ces dernières décennies justifie une étude de l'emploi de cette notion, ce qui permet de dégager en premier lieu, plusieurs figures de la barbarie, notamment autour des modes divers de violence. La lecture de trois auteurs, Jean-Pierre Dupuy, Jean-François Mattéi et Michel Henry permet ensuite de chercher l'origine de la violence, moins dans une haine de l'autre, différent, que dans une haine de soi et un besoin de reconnaissance. Il s'ensuit la nécessité de penser quelle réponse donner à la barbarie : La lecture de Paul Ricoeur, Axel Honneth et Marcel Hénaff suggère une recherche de piste dans la logique du don. Larticle se termine, en s'inspirant de certaines réflexions de Hannah Arendt, sur un questionnement quant à la visée de cette convocation de l'idée de barbarie.

In this article, the authors articulate the question “From where do we speak?” They explain the status of this question and then discuss the question “From where do the authors of the document Justice in the World speak?” They identify four reference points: a pneumatologic commitment, a perception of injustice, a belief in the Gospel basis of action on behalf of justice, and a recognition of self-involvement. This part of the text has been written by Clemens Sedmak. In the second part, they ask the question: “From where do we speak now?” After a few remarks on the climate crisis and the sexual abuse crisis, they focus on “the wounded sociality” of the present day. They explore the relationship between justice and this wounded sociality, taking the categories of social friendship and fraternity as points of reference (from Pope Francis’s encyclicals Laudato si’ and Fratelli tutti), and enter a conversation with three authors: Michael Sandel, Teresa Godwin Phelps, and Paul Ricoeur. This section has been authored by Mathias Nebel.

The Way

Abstract This paper examines the relationship between narrative and subjectivity. It begins by examining the subject in the work of Paul Ricoeur and Thomas Berry and the way in which the task of subjectivity for both thinkers is related to narrative. Although occupying different disciplines, both men share a commitment to narrative. Ricoeur in his formation of narrative identity and the unity that this provides to a life, and Berry in his use of narrative in proposing a new human identity. Through an examination of Ricoeur and Berry’s approach to narrative, specifically in how it contributes to the development of subjectivity, this paper suggests that such an approach has validity as a method in addressing the ecological crisis.
