This chapter introduces the reader to the figure and work of Istanbul theologian and philosopher of religion RecepAlpyağıl.Alpyağıl’s work reflects a deep critical interest in authenticity and the formation of intellectual canon. This discussion lays out his case for an inclusive canon of philosophy of religion and explores why Alpyağıl thinks it is needed in the context of an authentically Turkish and Muslim study of philosophy of religion. In his case for an inclusive canon, Alpyağıl turns to the example of French philosopher of religion Paul Ricoeur and his discussion of intertextuality. By teasing out the parallels between Ricoeur’s legacy in philosophy of religion and Alpyağıl’s use of Ricoeur’s example for a Turkish paradigm, this chapter argues for the dialectical and complex nature of Alpyağıl’s proposed path forward: that an authentically Turkish and Muslim philosophy of religion is intertextual and inclusive.

The Problem Of Evil

The objective of this article is to present and analyze some theses advanced in “Lectures 3” by Paul Ricoeur. The book is devoted to the boundaries of philosophy, to non-philosophical sources of philosophy and finally to the other par excellence of philosophy—to religion. The book is composed of a series of essays divided thematically into three parts. The first part deals with Kant's and Hegel's philosophy of religion. Then in the course of the book the author gradually moves away from the philosophical logos (the second part deals with prophets, the problem of evil, the tragic etc) to arrive at a point where recourse to the exegesis of the Bible becomes for him indispensable.

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.

The One

Every reader of Ricœur knows that hermeneutics endeavors to answer the aporiae of historical phenomenology. Hence arises the need to return to those aporiae and those answers. On the one hand, phenomenology, born with the maxim of going “directly to things themselves,” is confronted with the incessant evasion of the thing itself and with its dreams of presence being thereby shattered. This reversal should not be blamed on the failings of this or that thinker, but attributed to the very destiny of phenomenology itself. On the other hand, Ricœurian hermeneutics takes note of a gap (the very remoteness of the thing itself), and of a necessary return (to the thing of the text). Thus, there is nothing for thought itself to grieve over with respect to this enterprise. However, while the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty, faced with the same difficulties, orients itself towards political philosophy, the hermeneutics of Ricœur rather seeks to lead us to a philosophy of religion. This article hypothesizes that, in spite of the formula (inherited from Thévenaz) of a “philosophy without an absolute,” the thought of Ricœur heads in fair measure towards the Absolute, and that ontology is not the only name of the Promised Land.
