Abstract

Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutics of self bears ethical implications which can be understood only as a part of a broader debate with Heidegger’s ontology of understanding, and the levinasian project of an ethics beyond ontology. This essay aims to overcome that dichotomy, arguing, instead, for an ontological analogy which opens a way to think ethics as an expression of our desire to be.
