Cognition and Memory in the Withdrawal of the Self. Reflection from Paul Ricœur

Journal Title: RHS-Revista Humanismo y Sociedad - Year 2023, Vol 11, Issue 1

Abstract

The objective of this article is to present an analysis of memory and its place in the configuration of personal identity. It is argued that personal identity implies the construction of a reflexive memory, and that cognition connects with Paul Ricœur's phenomenological hermeneutics in the work of recollection that turns the self into an object of memory.
