Oneself As Another by Paul Ricœur

A philosophical examination of personal identity that treats the self as a dynamic interplay between sameness and selfhood, arguing that personhood is constituted through narrative, memory, action, and ethical relation to others; it develops a hermeneutic account showing how continuity over time depends on promises, responsibility, and recognition, and reframes subjectivity as a narrated, vulnerable capacity to answer and be accountable rather than an isolated, static substance.
