Series Statement:
Studies in the Thought of Paul Ricoeur
Content:
This volume brings together eleven essays that address a range of issues extending from broader questions of social justice to the sexual intimacy that bears the mark of our fleshly existence. Collectively, these essays extend the reach of Paul Ricoeur's early to late works by taking up some of the major social, political and religious challenges facing us in a postmodern, ultrapluralistic world.
