On the Modern Significance of Thoreau's Natural History focusing on Wild Fruits

这个项目的目的是研究亨利·大卫·梭罗的最后一部手稿，最近于2000年从诺顿出版社(美国)编辑的《野果》，由迪恩教授编辑。研究的目标首先是厘清文本的内容和结构，其次是从整体上解读手稿的生态哲学和结构。为此，该项目将《野果》翻译成日文，以理解梭罗所引用的学术来源，并掌握文本本身的内容。至于研究成果，我可以引用以下四项：1.出版位于东京的《昭库什野果译本》。在学术期刊上发表了三篇学术论文。在国际会议上的两次演讲4。三篇与项目主题相关的评论文章

This project's aim was to research the last Manuscript of Henry David Thoreau, Wild Fruits recently textualized in 2000 from Norton Publisher (USA) edited by Professor Dean. The targets of the research were first to clarify the contents and structure of the text, secondly to interpret an ecological philosophy and structure of the manuscript as a whole. For that purpose the project translated the text, Wild Fruits, into Japanese to understand the academic sources referred by Thoreau and grasp the contents of the text itself as well.As for the achievement of the research, I could quote the following 4 items:1. Publication of a Translated Wild Fruits from Shohakusha based in Tokyo2. Three Academic papers in the academic Journals3. Two presentations at International Conferences4.
