| Research Abstract |
In my research term I have read strictly Fichte's "Science of Knowledge in 1794", Schelling's "Essence of Freedom of Human Being" and Hegel's "The Great Logic". The aim of this research originally lay in that (1)behind the philosophical thoughts of these three I would find some relations with Spinoza and Kant, (2)I would find how these relations influence their theories of freedom and moral value and (3)namely how they accept and deal with Value-Nihilism which Kant faced seriously through Spinoza's Freedom-Nihilizm. From this point of view, honestly speaking, I am not satisfied with the result of these three years.
For the first, in Fichte's text I could find no pieces of description relating to or hinting at Value-Nihilism. For the second, though we can say Schelling's text finally means a trial for avoiding the Value-Nihilism, I could not find here any contexts hinting at influence from Spinoza or Kant. For the last, Hegel's text was found more difficult than ever heard and so I scarcely could understand what this book said. Adding to this I could find such discriptions concerning thoery upon Value nowhere. Therefore I reflect texts sellected this time were not suitable for my reserch.
From another side I have gotton many subordinative results. I have found that (1)Fichte didn't receive so seriously Kant's main but hidden theory of selfrealization of pure apperception toward outer world as I had expected before, (2)Hegel's dialectical logic is very similar to Fichte's way of logical development between I and Not- I, (3)Schelling's thoery of God is not necessarily to be judged a mere apology for Christian God, and (4)Hegel rates Spinoza's logic high at an introduction to the chapter of concept in "The Great Logic" and he mentions Kant precisely in many places.
