Formwerdung und Formlosigkeit der Form
-
Ralf Müller
Abstract
: The Becoming of Form and the Formlessness of Form. Contributions to the Philosophy of Life by Ernst Cassirer and Nishida Kitarō. In this paper, I argue that Ernst Cassirer and Nishida Kitarō - despite having seemingly opposing views on form - share a common philosophical aim: to strike a balance between academic theory and the imminence of life. I elucidate their respective projects regarding contributions to the discourse on the philosophy of life that took place in the German speaking academia in the early 20th century.The paper begins with a historical account of Cassirer’s and Nishida’s (non‐)meeting and the influence of German philosophy in Japan. The main task is to delineate their respective concepts of life based on their critiques of the philosophy of life. I conclude with a summary of the shared aspects of their views based on similarities between their concepts of form,which open a horizon for further investigation into the identity and difference between these two philosophers from Germany and Japan.
