- As we shall see, this is only one of many similarities in Ricoeur's and Nussbaum's views of the relationships of philosophy and literature. These resemblances are striking because Love's Knowledge is devoid of references to Time and Narrative, just as, later, Poetic Justice was of Oneself as Another. Ricoeur, for his part (1992, 191, 243), was aware of, and admired, Nussbaum's The Fragility of Goodness.
- The goal of “potentially universalizable concrete prescriptions” is the object of what Ricoeur calls the “ethical aim of life”: “aiming at the ‘good life’ with and for others, in just institutions” (1992, 172).
