Paul Ricœur

The phenomenology of Edmund Husserl had a permanent and profound impact on the philosophical formation of Paul Ricoeur. One could truly say, paraphrasing Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s brilliant 1959 essay ‘The Philosopher and his Shadow’,that Husserl is the philosopher in whose shadow Ricoeur, like Merleau-Ponty, also stands, the thinker to whom he constantly returns. Husserl is Ricoeur’s philosopher of reflection, par excellence. Indeed, Ricoeur always invokes Husserl when he is discussing a paradigmatic instance of contemporary philosophy of ‘reflection’ and also of  descriptive, ‘eidetic’ phenomenology. Indeed, I shall argue in this chapter that Husserl’s influence on Ricoeur was decisive and provided an eidetic, descriptive methodology which is permanently in play, even when it has to be concretized and mediated by hermeneutics, as Ricoeur proposes after 1960.

<p>La Nueva Galería Estatal de Stuttgart, obra de James Stirling, propone una diversidad de itinerarios caracterizados por su imprevisibilidad, por su fragmentación, por la continua contradicción de las expectativas del visitante. La temporalidad que se desprende de la experiencia de esta arquitectura es la de un tiempo discontinuo, azaroso, incierto, acorde con nuestra condición contemporánea. El examen de esta obra desde los planteamientos filosóficos de Edmund Husserl o Paul Ricoeur arroja nueva luz acerca de estas cuestiones.</p>

O problema do mal se apresenta como um grande desafio ao saber humano, principalmente à teologia como ciência do espírito, dado a abrangência de sua manifestação nas diversas dimensões da vida, na complexidade de sua compreensão e nas ameaças ao cuidado do ser. As circunstâncias enfrentadas na existência no mundo, que trazem à consciência humana o problema do mal, manifestam um mal-estar no ser e tocam na questão do sentido e na responsabilidade moral. A atual pandemia do coronavírus trouxe um mal-estar ao ser nestes tempos que desafia à compreensão do sentido da vida. Neste texto refletimos sobre o mal-estar da pandemia, seus possíveis reflexos sobre o sentido existencial do ser e buscamos um apoio teológico ao seu enfrentamento. Nossa reflexão parte da consideração da fragilidade do ser humano em face à pandemia, a partir de dados da pandemia obtidos de informações da imprensa e da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS). Em seguida a compreensão da situação atual toca na questão do sentido da vida e da responsabilidade moral, sob a ótica ontológica de tradição aristotélica e fenomenológica de Franz Brentano e Edmundo Husserl, e da filosofia existencial tal como em Kierkegaard, Paul Ricoeur e Albert Camus. Depois, com apoio em alguns textos bíblicos e sob uma hermenêutica teológica, busca-se a compreensão de uma forma de transcendência espiritual ao atual mal-estar. Finalmente, a reflexão objetiva apontar para uma compreensão mais ampla e profunda de saúde e vida. AbstractThe problem of evil is presented as a major challenge to human knowledge, especially of the theology spirit of science, given the scope of its manifestation in the various dimensions of life, the complexity of their understanding and threats to the care of the self. The circumstances faced in existence in the world, which bring the problem of evil to human consciousness, manifest a malaise in being and touch on the question of meaning and moral responsibility. The current pandemic of the coronavirus has brought a malaise to being in these times that defies the understanding of the meaning of life. In this text we reflect on the malaise of the pandemic, its possible reflections on the existential sense of being and we seek theological support for its confrontation. Our reflection starts from considering the fragility of the human being in the face of the pandemic, based on data from the pandemic obtained from information from the press and the World Health Organization (WHO). Then the understanding of the current situation touches on the question of the meaning of life and moral responsibility, under the ontological perspective of Aristotelian and phenomenological tradition of Franz Brentano and Edmund Husserl, and of existential philosophy as in Kierkegaard, Paul Ricoeur and Albert Camus. Then, with support in some biblical texts and under a theological hermeneutics, an attempt is made to understand a form of spiritual transcendence to the present malaise. Finally, the objective reflection points to a broader and deeper understanding of health and life.

Paul Ricœur

The 4th volume of “Manuscripts and Speeches” by the prominent contemporary thinker Paul Ricoeur (1913‑2005) contains works discussing one of his central themes — the problem of a common existence of men considered from the point of view of politics, economics, power, law, culture, morality, and ethics. At the same time, the French thinker specifically highlights and discusses such burning problems of modern life as mutual recognition, the fragility of human existence and earthly civilization in general, tolerance, care, justice, responsibility for the future of humanity, for the very idea of man. In a number of works, Ricoeur expresses his views on the possible future of Europe — on its new ethos overcoming the boundaries and structures of national states, on the combination of their “identity” and “otherness” at the global level. Translation from one language to another as a kind of a priori communication, exchange of memory as a preliminary transfer to a different cultural environment, forgiveness that stems from the suffering of others and raises the question of the burden of debt, — all this is being considered as a models of integration. Originally presented at philosophical congresses and symposia, as well as qua journal publications, the highlighted problems were fundamentally studied by the philosopher in his works “History and Truth” (1955), “Oneself as Another” (1990), “Ethics and Responsibility” (1994), “The Just” (vols. 1, 2 — 1995, 2001), “Ideology and Utopia” (1997), “Memory, History, Oblivion” (2000), “The Way of Recognition” (2004). The book “Paul Ricoeur. Politics, Economics and Society. Manuscripts and Speeches 4” is addressed to philosophers, cultural and political scientists and scholars representing different branches of humanitarian studies, as well as to readers interested in contemporary philosophy.

The One

Nature relative to subjectivity is an under theorized area of performance philosophy, one that we ignore at our peril. There is such a thing as nature. It encompasses all that humans are not, and suffuses all that we are and do. It is not merely a social or cultural construction, as we consider in this essay. In order to speak more definitively of nature and the body, we employ the phenomenology of Paul Ricoeur and reach back to the lifeworld (lebenswelt) philosophy of Edmund Husserl. Some read Husserl as an essentialist, but there are other readings, such as the one developed here. One of Ricoeur’s major works, Freedom and Nature: the Voluntary and the Involuntary, concerns motives and values at the organic level, studying how habits inform individual habitus and become embodied as nature in flux. Accordingly, this essay explores subjectivity, intentionality and nature in performance using examples from butoh relative to metamorphosis, a ubiquitous process in the rhythms and multi-tiered rhizomes of nature. Through Sartre and Ricoeur, the text also considers lived values of freedom relative to intention. In this light, readers are invited to explore their own porousness and evaporations via Freedom in Plasma, a butoh to do at the end of the essay.
