BLANCO ILLARI, Juan Ignacio. Aspectos narrativos de la identidad personal. Tópicos [online]. 2011, n.21. ISSN 1666-485X.

In this paper I will try to show the need to resort to a narrative conception of personal identity. In order to do so, I will take the most significant lines on personal identity and I will show their weaknesses and gaps. Such weaknesses are generated by the lack of narrative dimension. Firstly, I will analyze the "descriptive" line of the personal identity; I will take Parfit's work, and I will try to contrast with it the "narrativistic" arguments of MacIntyre and Ricoeur. Then I will turn to the normative theory, as it is elaborated by Tugendhat, in order to show how the narrative identity allows a better comprehension of the personal identity problem. In fact, the personal identity seems to involve a mixture of possession and dispossession, action and inaction, that only a narration can combine giving the identity unity and totality.
