A STUDY OF THE "NOTHING" OF THE MODERN JAPANESE PHILOSOPHY, FROM THE VIEW POINT OF THE HERMENEUTICAL ONTOLOGY

本研究的目的是阐明无概念的实在性。这一概念在西方哲学传统中没有任何真实的实体，而在近代日本哲学中，尤其是在西田的哲学中却有着独特的实体。这两者之间的差距可以通过解释学本体论来克服。G.Gadamer和这是由我自己深化。我认为，“无”的概念在真实的人类生活中通过视域融合和有效历史的过程得以实现，这是解释学本体论的核心概念。本研究阐明西田的绝对无概念也可以通过同样的过程实现。从长远来看，日本的虚无观并不是西方虚无观的反面，它具有人类生活的普遍现实性。

The Aim of this study is elucidate the reality of the concept of nothing. This concept doesn't have any real entity in the tradition of the western philosophy, On the contrary it has a peculiar entity in the modern Japaneses philosophy, especislly in Nishida's. The gap between these can be overcome by the hermeneutical ontology, This is a philosophcal method which is developed by M.ileidegger and H.-G.Gadamer and which is deepened by myself. I have thought that the concept of nothing can be realized through the process of the fusion of horizons and the effective history in the real human life, This is the key concept of the hermeneutical ontology. This study elucidated that Nishida's concept of the absolute nothing can also be realized by the same process. In the long run we can see in this study that the Japanese concept of nothing is not the counter concept against the western and that it has the universal reality of the human life.
