Action, Intersubjectivity and Narrative Identity
Essays on Critical Hermeneutics
Drawing on Paul Ricoeur’s research, this book argues that critical hermeneutics can work as a mediatory inter-discipline. As human sciences like psychoanalysis, sociology, and history grow more fragmented, critical hermeneutics may provide a unified methodological structure.

In provocative essays, scholars from Asia explore the dynamic relationship between animation and philosophy. Using thinkers like Deleuze and Guattari, they see animation not as a representation of an idea, but as a philosophical thinking-device in itself.

On Being True or False
Sentences, Propositions and What is Said
What sort of thing is true or false? This book argues that the main answers—sentences, beliefs, propositions—are mistaken. The chief truth-bearer is what someone says or writes. Being true or false is rooted in human talk. This broad examination also criticizes linguistics.
