Synopsis

Paul Ricoeur's theory of narrative has implications for a wide spectrum of contemporary thought.

The book provides an introduction to the creative and productive resources of Ricoeur's narrative theory and offers a helpful survey of many of his key concepts for those who may be unfamiliar with Ricoeur's work.
