| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present research project sheds light into the intellectual networks of the seventeenth-century Dutch Cartesians by analyzing their letters, university disputations, and books. Through the research, it has become clear how Descartes’s understanding of nature and philosophy had impacted the religious and political order of the day and had further burgeoned other controversies. By focusing on the relationship between philosophy and theology as well as science and religion through the analyses of the works of the Dutch Cartesians, the present research succeeds in a partial reformulation of the history of philosophy, which in general sees a liner progression from Descartes to Spinoza and eventually to Leibniz.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
従来の近世哲学史研究では、デカルトやスピノザといった有名な哲学者たちが注目される。また、彼らの著作のなかでも自然学や形而上学などの領域の研究が盛んである。それに対して、本研究の学術的意義は、彼らと同時代人であるデカルト主義者たちの知的ネットワークに光をあて、またさらには神学との関係のなかで分析することで、政治的な文脈における哲学のあり方を明らかにできた点にある。
