Santayana
This is an excellent primer of the philosophy of Paul Ricoeur's original texts. It provides background, history, underlying intention, essential terms, and continuity of his thought as well as a summary of all subject matters. Ricoeur is fine human specimen who worker under the tension of suspicion (hermeneutic of suspicion, e.g.) and faith.
