Hermeneutics and the theory of action : Paul Recoeur, reader of Davidson and Anscombe

Abstract EN

This research seeks to clarify the role played by the analytical and Anglo-Saxon philosophy in the development of Paul Recœur hermeneutics by contributing to change his interest in from interpreting texts to trying to interpret and understand human action philosophically, while attempting to develop his own theory, different from that of Davidson and Anescombe on the concept of the act and the possibilities of its interpretation.

however, in his research into the phenomenology of the responsible human, Recœur does not claim to try going beyond the readings of the Anglo-Saxon philosophers, but he is very cautiously investing their work in building a theory of action of dimensions with different concepts depending on hermeneutic thinking and linguistic analysis and certainly on the phenomenological interpretation method.
