Description

After outlining Hitoshi Nagai's theory of the <I> as the "unique point of origin" of the world, including his account of the relation between the <I>'s degeneration and the problem of the Other, this paper makes an inquiry into my own 'reading' of this theory. The analysis indicates how I inevitably 'translate' the theory in either of two ways, that is, either reading what Nagai calls <I> as the <I> for Makoto Katsumori or attributing it to the speaker himself, thus giving rise to two alternative modes of degeneration of the <I>. A further discussion suggests that, by paradoxically combining these two ways of reading, I, as the <I>, receive Nagai's discourse as a speech given by an Other, namely, another <I>.
