The main purpose of this study is to recognize what it considers to be the systematic dimension of Paul Ricoeur´s thought based, as believed, on the conception of consciousness as a task. Likewise, it aims to understand the ontological and methodological assumptions of his thought. It also intends to demonstrate that pursuing a symbolism of multiple meanings, Ricoeur´s concrete reflection integrates, from what he calls the gift of language, the philosophical logos, the episteme that was turned into science and the pre-philosophical richness of the symbol. His philosophical hermeneutics seeks the comprehension of one´s self, of the reflection of one´s self, through the interpretation applied to the signs and symbols of a consciousness that is not known from the beginning, but after the detour of its works and its actions. The reflection is the re-appropriation of what one becomes from what is said to us by the signs and symbols of culture and traditions. Paul Ricoeur is still presented as a critic of the immediate and narcissistic consciousness. He builds his intellectual journey in order to arbitrate the conflict of different interpretations that deal with the human symbolism. Finally, this work seeks to demonstrate that the philosopher proposes in fact a new route for reflection, through a démarche in two stages, in which the reflexive thought deprives itself of the immediacy of the false and common conscience, to reclaim later the deeper meanings expressed in our effort to exist and that are nourished by our desire of being. This is the historic and exemplary trajectory that this dissertation seeks to demonstrate.
