The Speculative Solution to the Aporia of Temporality and the Meaning of Being

Descripción del Articulo

This paper explains the process by which Ricoeur applied the Aristotelian ontology of actuality and potentiality to his own hermeneutics, and how this development enabled him to find a speculative solution to the aporetics of time. I identify two alternative solutions within this process: the poetic...

En este proceso distinguiremos dos soluciones alternativas: la solución poética dada en Tiempo y narración y la especulativa desarrollada en La memoria, la historia, el olvido. Aunque en ambas la analítica existenciaria tendrá un rol relevante, consideramos lo que dio lugar al cambio de perspectivas entre una y otra obra fue la introducción del conatus spinoziano.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú - Departamento de Humanidades2025-12-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/arete/article/view/32981Areté; Vol. 37 Núm. 2 (2025); 402-4182223-37411016-913Xreponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/arete/article/view/32981/28438http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/329812025-12-25T17:38:56Z
