The expertise and originality of Japanese scholars in phenomenology was introduced in Analecta Husserliana Vol. IX (1979). The third generation of Japanese scholars, belonging to the newly-founded Merleau-Ponty Japanese Circle, are presented in this volume. Following Merleau-Ponty’s tendency, the studies collected here make a fresh phenomenological start in relation to classical Husserlian phenomenology, turning deliberately towards the concrete , the wild world , flesh , embodiment , natural signs and primal nature . The rule of intentionality, natural language is thereby devalued.
