Reflections on the Just [Standard Large Print 16 Pt Edition] Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

At the time of his death in 2005, French philosopher Paul Ricoeur was regarded as one of the great thinkers of his generation.

In more than half a century of writing about the essential questions of human life, Ricoeur's thought encompassed a vast range of wisdom and experience, and he made landmark contributions that would go on to influence later scholars in such areas as phenomenology, hermeneutics, structuralis, and theology.

Consisting of fifteen thematically organized essays, Reflections on the Just continues and expands on the work Ricoeur began in his ''little ethics'' in Oneself as Another and The Just.

In the preface, he considers what revisions he would make were he to start over and how that is reflected in these essays.

The opening part brings phenomenology to bear on ethics; the second group of essays comprises shorter, occasional pieces considering the concept of justice int he works of other philosophers, including Max Weber and Charles Taylor.

The final part turns to the specific domains of medicine and the law, examining how concepts of right and justice operate in those realms.
