Hermeneutics and the Philosophy of Religion

Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005) was one of the most distinguished and prolific philosophers of religion in the second half of the 20th century. Through his wide-ranging writings, a self-reflective and critical approach to hermeneutics became an indispensable tool for the philosophical interpretation of the complex text worlds of religious traditions and the critical reflection of cultural phenomena. His philosophical hermeneutics was sensitive to the lack of transparency of the human self and the corresponding intricacies of direct and indirect communication in religion and culture. On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his birth this volume explores and evaluates Ricoeur's contributions to the hermeneutic turn in the philosophy of religion.
