Abstract

NISHIDA is one of the most influential philosophers in the modern Japan and the founder of the Kyoto school of philosophy. He was probably the first to introduce edmund husserl’s phenomenology into Japan, and his many students so sympathized with it that they went on to study abroad under Husserl, martin heidegger, and eugen fink.
