- 研究成果概要
- In this research project, I aimed to provide a reconstruction of Onishi Hajime’s (大西祝, 1864-1901) notion of conscience (良心) and, in doing so, grant scholars both internationally and abroad a new foothold with which to consider the development of modern Japanese ethical thought. With the help of this funding, I was able to engage in precise textual research on Onishi’s thought and establish the three core elements that make up his thought as an amalgamation of (1) a Kantian notion of reason, (2) Relational Ontological Principles, and (3) Teleological Views of Evolution. The results of this investigation have been presented first at the Hokkaido Philosophy Association’s Bi-Annual Research Group under the title “A Reconstruction of Onishi Hajime’s Concept of Conscience: What is the Moral Ideal? (大西祝における良心概念の再構築―道徳的理想とは何か？).” Additionally, two scholarly articles are currently being prepared for submission to international journals.
