The aim of this paper is to reconstitute Ricoeur's early project of a phenomenology of the passions. After having examined the motives which led Ricoeur to leave this project behind, we will try to show that Ricoeur nonetheless sketched out a rigorously phenomenological conception of the world of passions, by describing their specific intentionality as well as their systematic reference to the three fundamental passions of possession, power and honor. On this basis, the last scope of this paper will be to shed light on Ricoeur's account of Kant's anthropology of passion, which leads to the idea that the fundamental passions are involved in the subjective and intersubjective constitution of the lifeworld.

In the most radical situations of weakening personal identity, the question “Who am I ?” is left unanswered. According to Paul Ricoeur, these situations do not represent real losses of identity. There remains a purified form, exposed of the ipseity, which ends up solving its wandering identity by committing to others. This article aims to analyze the nature of this residual ipseity and to question the conception proposed by Ricoeur. We will first try to show that neither ipseity as such nor the promise, which is one of its modes, constitute models of personal identity. Keeping the idea that something remains of us in identity crises, the concept of ipseity will then be the subject of a phenomenological reappropriation coming to give it, by the detour of the concept of narrative identity proposed by László Tengelyi, an identity base and consistency.

Nowadays, adult education is crossed by syntagms mobilized by a managerial ideology that distorts terms such as autonomy, responsibility or capacity. Following a critical analysis of these diversions, the article first proposes to resituate these semantic shifts in the contemporary context and their evolution in adult education research and practices. The work of Ricoeur and Honneth is then used to discuss their respective contributions to extend these questions. The article ends with the opening that this work allows to lay the foundations of adult education, towards the horizon of a "good life".

The unity of Paul Ricoeur's philosophy can be restated using the question of the imagination as a guideline. Ricoeur's goal was to envisage the imagination not as a psychological faculty but as a semantic power. Metaphor and narrative allow us to see the real in a different way, hence to imagine it. The image has less to do with perception and concepts. It is the instrument that allows them to be articulated. This shift of the imaginary to the practical dimension is confirmed in Ricoeur's theory of ideology and utopia.

This article will examine a form of spiritual accompaniment known as pre-mourning in the relevant literature. It is a type of support that considers family caregivers who undergo this pre-mourning process. The article will focus its analysis on the roles of care (“solicitude”, according to Ricoeur), and the face (“the visage”, Lévinas) in the bereavement of family caregivers who experience these circumstances. With its anthropological roots in the philosophical, this type of spiritual accompaniment provides a dimension that is profoundly human and universal in scope. Such accompaniment is unorthodox in that it provides care environments with a practice that derives its utility from the very act of solicitude.
