Dzieła
- 1930Struktura iki
Hermeneutyczna analiza iki – światowego, kokieteryjnego dystansu w kulturze Edo – jako przeżywanego sposobu bycia narodu.
Stanowisko
The Structure of Iki analyses a key word of Edo-period urban culture, especially of the pleasure quarters: iki is a refined erotic allure tempered by proud bravado and resignation, visible in colours, patterns, gestures and architecture. With a hermeneutic method shaped by Heidegger, Kuki read it as the self-expression of the Japanese people’s mode of being, untranslatable into European concepts – a claim now often criticised as cultural essentialism. His systematic work The Problem of Contingency distinguishes logical, empirical and metaphysical contingency; at its core lies the chance encounter of two independent beings. Heidegger later recalled their conversations in his “Dialogue on Language”.
Życie i kontekst
Kuki Shūzō was born in 1888 in Tokyo, the son of Baron Kuki Ryūichi, a senior official; his mother’s liaison with the art critic Okakura Kakuzō overshadowed his childhood. He studied philosophy at Tokyo Imperial University. From 1921 to 1929 he lived in Europe, hearing Rickert, Husserl and Heidegger and meeting Bergson in Paris. He then taught at Kyoto Imperial University until his death in 1941.
