| Research Abstract |
Textual sources newly available in recent years encourage us to reconsider the history of Buddhist semantics and related issues. The present researcher edited the Nyayamanjari, a Brahmanical text, on the basis of Sanskrit manuscripts. The author, Bhatta Jayanta, criticizes Buddhist theories and thus provides us with a lot of information. Three articles, i.e. annotated Japanese translations of the Nyayamanjari, are published in the faculty annual as the main results of the three-year research. Five research articles and one critical edition are also published in research journals, etc.
