Forgiveness, historicity ande narrative: discussions from Paul Ricoeur

Abstract

Ricoeur argues that the inclusion of forgiveness in a trading scheme involves the awareness about the bilateral relationship between the demand and the offer of forgiveness, and, however, remains unrecognized the difference between the levels of conditionality and unconditional. That emerging dilemmas arising from a comparison of speeches guilty declaring its lack and the victim can forgive. Such dilemmas arise as questions: can forgive him who does not confess his fault? We need forgiveness states who has been the victim? You can forgive yourself?
