Of these judgements, those made when speculating whether or in what way the claims or position of one historical philosopher affected the claims or position of another are particularly prevalent in the history of philosophy. Such judgements, when largely based on these philosophers\u2019 (primary) writings, suffer from a lack of data, difficulty in interpretation of the texts, themselves, and ambiguity concerning the very concept of \u201cinfluence\u201d, and thereby must take a different form than the statistical causal inference common in the natural and social sciences. This research project will therefore clarify how presumptions concerning relationships of influence are made within research on the history of philosophy and what assumptions are (implicitly) made therein through a collaboration with historians, adopting a bottom-up approach considering individual cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1048\" height=\"887\" src=\"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/06\/c2116de3661f91faf4683666a3db52ff.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-402\"\/><figcaption>Immanuel Kant\u2019s <i>Critique of Pure Reason<\/i> (1781, first edition): One of the most influential works in the history of philosophy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":367,"parent":294,"menu_order":0,"template":"","project_category":[23],"class_list":["post-366","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project_category-joint-research-projects"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-12 07:13:12","action":"change-status","newStatus":"private","terms":[],"taxonomy":"project_category"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/366","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project\/294"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=366"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"project_category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/ridc.okayama-u.ac.jp\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/project_category?post=366"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
