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.

Augustine and History relates history to Augustine's thoughts,
life, and writings in several distinct, but connected, ways. The
essays place Augustine in his historical context, analyze his own
theory and practice of historiography, and examine his impact on
later historians and controversies. Augustine's intellect and
influence are elaborated in contexts as disparate as the Fall of
Rome, debates on the death penalty, and even the reactions to 9/11.
This collection of scholarly essays is excellent for a wide-ranging
academic audience.
