In the vast collection of his writings, the French philosopher Paul Ricoeur only sporadically raised the
issue of interreligious dialogue. In this book,
comparative theologian Marianne Moyaert argues that Ricoeur's hermeneutical
philosophy offers valuable signposts for a better understanding of the complexities related to interreligious dialogue. By revisiting the key insights of Ricoeur's wider oeuvre from the
perspective of interfaith dialogue, Moyaert elaborates a Ricoeurian interreligious hermeneutic. In Response to the Religious Other provides a coherent interreligious
reading of Ricoeur's philosophy of
religion, his hermeneutical anthropology, his ethical hermeneutics. Moyaert shows that Ricoeur makes an exceptionally rewarding conversation partner for anyone wishing to explore the complex issues associated with interreligious dialogue. This book is essential for studies of hermeneutics, ethics, religious philosophy,
global cooperation and hospitality, comparative theology, and religious
identity.
