Journal Title: Miscellanea Anthropologica et Sociologica - Year 2016, Vol 17, Issue 2

Abstract

The aim of the article is to discuss the issue of narrative turn in the context of philosophy.In order to present a specificity in philosophical narrative turn, I have characterized theconception of “narrative identity” as a representation of the anti-metaphysical, which isaiming to recognize the dynamic, open and unspecified character of self-identity. This willindicate – according to P. Ricoeur’s philosophical standpoint – that the implications ofthe idea of “narrative identity” are significant for philosophical anthropology and ethics.
