Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005) has been heralded as one of the most
notable philosophers of the twentieth century. Like a stone
skipping across the philosophical pond, he would write a major work
in one field, then move on to another. As a consequence, he is one
of the most inter-disciplinary philosophers whose work not only
brings together such areas as existentialism, phenomenology,
hermeneutics, structuralism, psychoanalysis, metaphor, narrative,
and political ethics, it bridges the gulf between Continental and
Anglo-American philosophy. Despite the diversity one could identify
continuing threads throughout all of his work that make him a major
representative of hermeneutical philosophy, developing it much
further in a critical direction. One of the areas to which he
contributed greatly, almost in passing, was philosophy of religion,
where he made notable contributions in the areas of symbol and
metaphor as well as epistemology. Ricoeur's work has been
appropriated in theology but often in an indirect way. This book
helps one grasp the breadth of a complex philosopher but will also
indicate its increasing relevance and appropriation in theology.
