生成の世界における「待つこと」 : 「充実した生」をめぐるサンテグジュペリの洞察を手がかりに

The present article attempts to explicate the nature of "waiting", especially in the world of becoming. In Chapt. I, the manifold structure of "waiting" is illustrated through two articulations; 1) into "hope", "patience", etc., on the subjective aspect of "waiting" (IA1), and, 2) into the worlds of "nature", "instrument-machinery", and "becoming", to which the objective aspect of "waiting" belongs (IA2). Nextly, "waiting" in the world of becoming is characterized by 1) the indefiniteness of the objective aspect, 2) the larger context including manipulation, and, 3) the mutually dependent relationship between the subjective and the objective aspects. (IB). In Chapt. I, "demarche (walking)" is outlined which plays a central role to the description of "replete life" in Citadelle, written by Antoine de Saint-Exupery. This "demarche" is found to satisfy the three characteristics of "waiting" in the world of becoming (IIA). Then "demarche" is further featured with respects to its temporal structure (IIB) and to its other moments: the relationships between others and self, and, between objects and self (IIC). Lastly, the implications of the above explication are drawn on to the problem of "errors" in the world of becoming. (IID)
