| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In 1878, Tokyo University hired Ernest Fenollosa (1853-1908) as its first non-Japanese instructor in philosophy. Although Fenollosa is known for his evaluation of Japanese art, at Tokyo University he taught on the subjects of philosophy and economics. From the reminiscences of his students, it is clear that his lectures greatly influenced many Meiji-period Japanese thinkers, yet the vast majority of the notes from Fenollosa’s lectures on philosophy remain unpublished. This research project, by transcribing and translating portions of the notes of Fenollosa’s lectures taken by Takamine Sankichi 高嶺三吉 (1861?-1887) and Kiyozawa Manshi 清沢満之 (1863-1903) while they were students at Tokyo University, made the content of those lecture available publically and by doing so clarified one aspect of the process of the reception of Western philosophy in Japan in its earliest stages.
