Research Abstract |
In this research project, we made a systematic reinterpretation of the philosophy of the Kyoto School, especially that of Nishida and Tanabe, through the comparison with some French contemporary philosophers(Levinas, Ricoeur, Derrida, Henry, etc.). A special attention was paid to their concepts of"self-awareness"(Kyoto School) and"testimony"(French philosophy). With this approach, we succeeded in understanding philosophical and actual significations of their singular thoughts concerning corporality, sociality and historicity.
