Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I made a comparative study of the conceptions of morality in Locke's Christian ethics and Hume's non-Christian ones. I pointed out the significance of Hume's account of indirect passions as an analytic explication of moral feelings in a non-Christian way. But I also suggested that at the end of Dialogues concerning Natural Religion Hume might have been theoretically necessitated to accept the conception of a cosmic intelligent being, something like God, as the foundation for human natural freedom from the present political power structures. I translated Kendall Walton's Mimesis as Make-Believe into Japanese, and published it in 2016. This is to be considered as a basis for the fictionalist concept of moral obligation. I have completed a book-length study, What is Self-Sacrifice: a philosophical investigation. I am going to publish it in 2018.
