Research Area

1)Gaston Bachelard

A study of the thought of Gaston Bachelard, who was active in France in the 20th century. In particular, the relationship between poetics and the philosophy of science, the significance of his reflections on time, etc.

2)French phenomenology

My research focuses on how a French thinker, while accepting Husserl's philosophy, developed his own unique arguments and applied phenomenology to the case of art.

3)On the Limitations of Art

Research on areas not typically considered art, but thought to be very close to it. Examples include the beauty of food, sports, and mathematics
