Outline of Final Research Achievements

1. According to the Husserl seeing images has three factors. 1) image-thing (upon which an image appears), 2) image-object (image which appears) and 3) image-sujet (the depicted object itself). And the latter two have the relation of resemblance. But by this alone the phenomenon of image is not yet realized. For that , it is necessary for us to interrupt positing the being of the image-object (neutral modification). OGUMA studied this modification. TAGUCHI studied the resemblance and the relation of resemblance and the passivity of image-experience. 2. KIYOZUKA analysed the relation between what is seen and what is represented. 3. YAMADA argued the relationship between perception and concept in reference to Wittgenstein's thought about "Aspect Switching". 4. OGUMA also studied the relationship between perception and meaning. According to Husserl, two factors of perception(sensation and meaning) come to being through the medium of Inner Time-consciousness.
