- Abstract
- On the occasion of the recent translation of a work by Kimura Bin - The In-Between. A Phenomenological approach to schizophrenia, - the A. seeks to investigate the antecedents of this notion of "in-between" (aida in Japanese thought). The A. provides a number of general remarks on traditional thought in Japan and shows how it is reflected in the work of Kimura Bin. The main part of this study consists of an account of the notion of aida as developed by the philosopher Watsuji, who went furthest in interpreting human beings as characterized by relations of "betweenness" (aidagara) rather than by the solipsistic structure of the modern Cogito. Some indications are also provided in regard to the ontological foundations of an anthropology of this kind.
