Mesology of the encounter: An invitation to dialogue Series 1: Introduction to mesology - 2022.
61
Translation of “Introducing Mesology,” the first of the four acts of Mesology of the Encounter: An Invitation to Dialogue by Kioka Nobuo. This act consists of 3 scenes, each involving a lecture followed by a dialogue between three characters. Scene 1, “What is a milieu? ” defines the three concepts of environment, ecosystem, and milieu, distinguishing milieu as a trajection of the other two. Scene 2, “Mesology as geophilosophy,” explains that the geophilosophical notions of “place,” “landscape,” and “encounter” are of crucial importance for Japanese philosophy as a mesology. Finally, Scene 3, “Criticism of modern civilization,” insists that we should revive the “between-ness” ( aida) expunged by modern dualism, in order to overcome the “logic of desire,” the source of our present environmental crisis.
