Description

Research Notes

The aim of this paper is to introduce Daniel Parrochia, a recent French representative of epistemology. In France, epistemology means the philosophy of the history of science. It draws some philosophical themes from the particular history of science. Recently, its uniqueness has faded, but some philosophers have taken over its particular tradition, which is an important side of French philosophy. Parrochia, a successor of Gaston Bachelard and a disciple of François Dagognet, develops his own epistemology. His main topics are mathematics, logic, physics and the theory of technique. On the one hand he follows traditional epistemology, but on the other hand he proposes his own original philosophy. However, his name is unknown in Japan. First, I introduce Parrochia’s career and his personality, showing how his philosophy has developed through three periods in his career. Then, I survey some of his writings. For example, he deals with the history of philosophy, physics and meteorology. Recently, he has discussed gender studies and the theory of music. Finally, I discuss his central theme. The concept of network réseau is at the core of his philosophy. Depending on this concept, we can understand that the aim of Parrochia is to reexamine not only the system but the whole of western philosophy.
