AbstractThe author shows how Ricoeur's notion of Forgiveness has to be understood as that which is beyond action. Three keys to interpretation are put forward. The first one probes several central notions of the Ricoeurian anthropology, which refer to the bond between the agent and the action : Hannah Arendt's concept of unbinding, the notion of capacity, and the predisposition to good. The second line of interpretation examines how this « beyond action » can be read in the light of the Economy of the Gift. The third key considers the practical dimension of this « beyond action » in the judicial sphere.

This article weighs the advantages of using autobiography to shed light on the conceptual convergence of subject-writer, place and narrative. Its author examines three approaches to the interplay of subject-writer, place and narrative, and demonstrates that these notions, peculiar to literary geography, are seldom considered to equate with one another, conceptually speaking. He advocates an enriched conceptualization of subject (i.e. open to other influences) in which place has a dynamic function and narrative a mediating role. The work of the Californian writer Charles Bukowski (1920-1994) is autobiographical in a number of ways, and illustrates the mutually constituent relationships between these three notions. Autobiography, literary or otherwise, is a mine of examples of theoretical and methodological convergence.

By means of a phenomenological study of cinematographic language, the author examines the question of the relative inherentness of thought, which she considers to be the expression of a sort of Dasein or "being-there" in filmic discourse. Describing, in a way, the site or the state of thought in discourse, she explores the problematic of referentiality, ultimately that of the genres of filmic discourse, which, under cover of a sort of worldliness, brings both the world and thought under scrutiny. In short, the author believes that even when cinema resorts to the simulacrum of their dispersal or disappearance, it participates in the expression of thought and of realities. Doing so, it imposes a constant ethical questioning.

In his book L'éthique clinique pour une approche relationnelle (Clinical Ethics: A Relational Approach), Hubert Doucet proposes an approach to clinical ethics that includes various theoretical and practical perspectives, notably that of the philosopher Paul Ricoeur. Doucet argues for a relational vision of clinical ethics practice, an ethics of caregivers that, in his words, “needs to be built from the experience of the disease and adapted to the ill person.”

In North America, Canada and Québec, the practice of research ethics is articulated around the application by local authorities of certain principles and application rules found in normative documents. This framework aims to evaluate research projects in order to protect persons taking part in research. Although useful and necessary, this research ethics practice centered on the application of norms presents limits and is challenged by new scientific advances and their context of development. This article argues in favour of the broadening of research ethics practices to include three “moments” of a complete ethical process, inspired by the philosopher Paul Ricoeur – “anterior ethics”, the normative “moment” and deliberation. A broadening of research ethics would allow for the creation or multiplication of different spaces in which to deliberate on the implicit or explicit meanings and aims of scientific research, and also to include global preoccupations concerning their social context.

This text proposes to reflect on the question of the responsibility of meaning and culture in a problematic world. How to assume this responsibility? We will first show that the question of meaning and culture has been and remains a central and critical issue of educational reform since the 1990s. We will then make some remarks on the hermeneutic philosophy and emphasize that responsibility for transmission can be based on a dense concept of culture. Finally, we will emphasize the political question which lies at the heart of the question of meaning and culture in the world today, for the world today.
Keywords: Culture, réforme de l'éducation au Québec, monde problématique, herméneutique, démocratie et politique, Culture, education reform in Quebec, problematic world, hermeneutics, democracy and politics

Benevolent authority appears to be a means to successfully accompanying each individual in achieving their personal autonomy. This article considers two potential consequences of this thesis. One is that this motivates us to try to develop a dialectical approach to authority and to recognition (part one). Authors agree on the fact that authority exists only when its legitimacy is recognized. Many contemporary thinkers, such as Taylor, Honneth and Ricoeur, have used the Hegelian notion of struggle for recognition in order to analyze our societies. What are the possible articulations between these two positions? The second consequence discussed concerns the difficulty of occupying a position of authority today (part two). Many researchers in education sciences question under what conditions it is possible to exercise authority. Our second part asks the question: “why must those who exercise benevolent authority also take care of themselves?”

Since the 1990s, the training of teachers and principal education advisors has undergone recurrent changes that more or less transform the very meaning of the training model in question. In a socio-historical approach, we will go back to the first principles that constitute it and will try to detect the tensions, the paradoxes and the aporias in the identity construction of these professionals of education.

L’objet de ce travail de recherche est de mettre en dialogue les œuvres de Hans-Georg Gadamer et de Paul Ricœur afin de mettre au jour ce qui caractérise en propre la conception herméneutique du langage et d’en souligner la pertinence. Notre thèse principale est que, pour ce faire, il est impératif de dépasser les lectures dichotomiques des deux œuvres par une interprétation plus dialectique, puisque seule une telle démarche paraît susceptible de saisir l’étendue, la richesse et l’importance de l’intelligence herméneutique du phénomène langagier. Ainsi, dans ce travail, nous défendrons l’idée que, par-delà leurs différences incontestables, précieuses en elles-mêmes car sans elles il n’est pas de dialogue, les herméneutiques de Gadamer et Ricœur se distinguent par une réflexion philosophique incessante sur notre appartenance fondamentale au …

Notre travail porte sur l’herméneutique du temps de Paul Ricœur et se donne pour principal objectif de mieux comprendre la capacité de rouvrir le passé dont Ricœur souligne souvent l’importance au fil de son œuvre, sans toutefois lui accorder en tout temps un traitement philosophique détaillé et digne de satisfaire les standards de la rigueur conceptuelle. Sous quelles conditions et sur la base de quelles idées originales cette capacité donne-t-elle lieu selon Ricœur à des « reprises créatrices », qui attestent, par les possibles qu’elles font apparaître, le caractère d’indétermination et d’inachèvement du passé humain ? C’est à cette question que le présent travail s’efforce de répondre. Nous y défendons la thèse selon laquelle les reprises du passé reposent toujours chez Ricœur sur une subtile …
