| Research Abstract |
The Aim of this study is elucidate the reality of the concept of nothing. This concept doesn't have any real entity in the tradition of the western philosophy, On the contrary it has a peculiar entity in the modern Japaneses philosophy, especislly in Nishida's. The gap between these can be overcome by the hermeneutical ontology, This is a philosophcal method which is developed by M.ileidegger and H.-G.Gadamer and which is deepened by myself. I have thought that the concept of nothing can be realized through the process of the fusion of horizons and the effective history in the real human life, This is the key concept of the hermeneutical ontology. This study elucidated that Nishida's concept of the absolute nothing can also be realized by the same process. In the long run we can see in this study that the Japanese concept of nothing is not the counter concept against the western and that it has the universal reality of the human life.
