Ricoeur on Time and Narrative

An Introduction to Temps et récit

by William C. Dowling ...

“The object of this book,” writes William C. Dowling in his preface, “is to make the key concepts of Paul Ricoeur’s Time and Narrative available to readers who might have felt bewildered by the twists and turns of its argument.” The sources of puzzlement are, he notes, many.
