Filosofia del soggetto e mediazione interpretativa: sulla fenomenologia ermeneutica di Paul Ricoeur
Menga, Ferdinando G.
2009
Abstract
Several attempts, which have recently tried to empower again the philosophical crossing between
phenomenology and hermeneutics, call for a re-examination of the main topics and
themes at stake in such a project, which has dominated in many ways part of the 20th Century
Continental Philosophy. However, given such a perspective, what I would like to show
in the following essay is that, far from insisting again on the primacy of the thought of an
author like Hans-Georg Gadamer, it could be of higher suitability to address the thought of
another philosopher: Paul Ricoeur. Particularly, by reconsidering the main steps of his phenomenological-
hermeneutical project, I would like to stress how Ricoeur’s philosophy, in
comparison to Gadamer’s approach, is not only able to display a larger spectrum of confrontations,
but also a stronger theoretical structure, which has its pivotal point in the notion of
an interpretative deconstruction of the titanic subject through the appropriative mediation
of the narrative text.
