| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
The research has been terribly delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic situation. No research trips were possible, and no reunions were made.
I am waiting since March 2020 the opportunity to go to France to finish my work on Merleau-Ponty unpublished manuscripts, at the Ecole Normale Superieure (ENS) in Paris. This final work is essential to complete the present edition at Mimesis publishers.
Consequently, the publication of a lot of research achievements has been delayed. That said, some research achievements were published and offer promises of scholarship advancement. In particular, I was able to complete a manuscript on the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze, which will be published next year. Besides, I received the Theodore de Paepe Prize (2021 edition), from the Belgium Royal Academy of Science, for my book In reality: Bergson Beyond Duration.

Current Status of Research Progress
4: Progress in research has been delayed.
Reason
The research has been terribly delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic situation. No research trips were possible to prospect research funds in Japan and abroad, and thus many projects are pending. Because of such a situation the organisation of reunions was also delayed. Translation work also proceeded much more slowly than expected.
|
| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
Next year, we will have to proceed to all the delayed research, depending on the evolution of the pandemic situation. It is extremely difficult to make any concrete plans in such a situation. I expect to finish my edition of Merleau-Ponty''s manuscripts and engage the process of publication.

| Causes of Carryover |
The insurance is due to the delay occasioned by the coronavirus infection
