Digital Projects

The Digital Ricœur website provides access to the work of the French philosopher Paul Ricœur (1913–2005). The site provides sophisticated digital tools for analysis of Ricoeur’s work that are presented so that they can be used by scholars with little or no training in the digital humanities. At present, the material available offers writings by Ricœur. The aim over time is also to include writings on Ricœur. I have been serving as co-director of this project with George Taylor since 2017.
