研究成果概要
    This research elucidated 1) Schelling’s reading of Aristotle in his later period, 2) Schelling’s “metaphysical empiricism” based on, but different from, Aristotle’s empiricism and 3) an aspect of French phenomenology that inherits Schelling’s metaphysical empiricism.
    To achieve the aim stated above, the research process unfolded as follows: 1) investigation of the proofs of the existence of God in Plato’s Laws, vol. 10 and Aristotle’s Metaphysics, vol. 12, and a comparison between the two, 2) investigation of Schelling’s reading of Aristotle in his Philosophy of Revelation and his “metaphysical empiricism” as a critical heritage of Aristotle’s empiricism, as well as the latter’s notion of “the unmoved mover”, 3) elucidation of Plato’s notion of “participation” and Aristotle’s criticism of this notion, on the one hand, and the parallels with Kant’s criticism of the principle of thoroughgoing determination, and arguments pertaining to this, as elaborated through Leibniz, Wolff and Baumgarten, on the other hand, 4) clarification of Schelling’s metaphysical empiricism that describes a necessary being as “the unprethinkable being” based on the abovementioned background and 5) investigation of French phenomenology (especially that of Levinas), which distinguishes between the idea of the infinite and the necessary condition of being, and through this shares the structure of Schelling’s metaphysical empiricism.
