Location
Australian Catholic University, Brisbane campus
2011 Simone Weil Lecture on Human Value
"On Forgiveness: Narrative and Lyrical"
Prof Kevin Hart, FAHA - ACU Eric D'Arcy Professor of Philosophy
A common view of forgiveness involves the idea that it happens spontaneously; it is ersonal, immediate, a gift, miraculous, without reason. There is much to be said for this view, which I call "lyrical forgiveness". However, reflection on moral problems of forgiveness leads one to counter-examples that call forth another perspective, one that I call "narrative forgiveness". In what ways is forgiveness embedded in narratives, both personal and inter-personal? How does a narrative approach to forgiveness allow us to understand better the nature of forgiving and the need to forgive?
