Faire connaître le Fonds Ricœur et l’ouvrir à tous

<p> The Fonds Ricœur (Ricœurs’s fondation), a treasure to discover and to introduce to others, a special place for studies and to make contacts.</p> <p> In 2003, Paul Ricoeur donated his personal working library along with his archives in aims to make them available to researchers and students all over the world.</p> <p>  </p> <p> In order to finance this initiative, he built a foundation and offered a financial</p> <p> backing. With the combined support of local authorities and private sponsors, the Fonds Ricoeur was born.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Exterieur-1458398219.jpg-1458398219" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/293106/exterieur-1458398219.jpg-1458398219.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> This unique library is located on Boulevard Arago, Paris 14th arrondissement. It comprises three spaces :</p> <p>  </p> <p> 1- The Salle Ricœur, which includes :</p> <p>  </p> <p> - His entire body of work in different languages (including all of his published topics since 1936) and the secondary literature that it has inspired.</p> <p> - Temporary exhibitions of archives, or reading groups focused on one particular work of Paul Ricœur, or on one topic.</p> <p> - A place for meetings and studies.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Interieur-1457854417.jpg-1457854417" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/289858/interieur-1457854417.jpg-1457854417.jpg"></p> <p> <em>The temporary exhibitions of Fond Ricœur (Ricœur Foundation)</em></p> <p>  </p> <p> 2- Archives (courses, manuscripts and correspondence…)</p> <p>  </p> <p> 3- Paul Ricœur's personal library which was organised in several circles according to his own instructions. Some workstations are installed in this area as well.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Photo_rayonnages_2-1458761096" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/294821/Photo_Rayonnages_2-1458761096.jpg"></p> <p> <em>Bookshelves containing the personal library of Paul Ricœur.</em></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>2010-2015: </strong></p> <p> The Fonds Ricoeur receives the first group of researchers within the library and a website—giving access to many documents including, handwritten, audio and video archives—is created. The centre receives working groups, seminars and organizes various conferences. In 2013, the centenary anniversary of Paul Ricoeur marked the most important congress to date. The Paul Ricœur association is formed. It now organizes debates and oversees the Paul Ricœur Award.</p> <p>  </p> <p> In 2016 the Fonds Ricoeur is at a turning point of its development. The time has come to realize Paul Ricoeur's initial plan and make it open to all.</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p>

Allocation of funds

<p> Purpose of this collective is to provide new resources to the Fonds Ricoeur in order to: - Increase its capacity to receive larger audiences (organising the committee room,  finding funds for international students…) - Improve the digitalization (i.e speed and distribution) of online articles, books and archives; following the development of an online platform… - To support the development of a "Ricœur Committee" by engaging students, researchers, professors of Philosophy and other disciplines, professional and public figures...  through promoting  informal meetings. - To make the Fonds Ricoeur known: using an international campaign of promotion and animation of social networks.   </p> <p> The amounts collected will be used to increase the permanent staff (manager, librarian,  the digitisation expert, the webmaster/ community manager) in order to complete these projects.</p> <p>  </p> <p> - The donations will be made to Ricœur’s foundation and they are eligible for tax exemptions.</p> <p>  </p> <p> If the campaign exceeds its target of 10,000 euros, a special event will be organized in Fonds Ricœur and in the gardens around 38 boulevard Arago in Paris.--</p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p>
