Description

Paul Ricoeur's Time and Narrative, Volume 3 is a comprehensive reexamination of his philosophy on the relations between time and narrative. In this final volume, Ricoeur synthesizes his ideas from the first two volumes, aiming to fully explicate his hypothesis that thinking at work in every narrative configuration is completed in a refiguration of temporal experience. Ricoeur's central task is to determine how far a poetics of narrative can resolve the conflicts between different senses of time, including the phenomenological sense experienced by individuals and the cosmological sense described by history and physics. He reflects on the inscrutability of time itself and attempts to discern the limits of his own examination of narrative discourse. This work offers an alternative perspective that balances rigor and creativity, making it a valuable contribution to philosophical debates on time and narrative.
