An Indian thinker. Also known as Akapāda, his Chinese name is Sokumoku. He is considered the founder of the Nyāya school, one of the six schools of Indian philosophy. He is said to have compiled the Nyāya school of argumentation, which had been developing since the 5th and 6th centuries BC, from the standpoint of orthodox Brahmanism, and compiled the Nyāya Sutra, which consists of 5 volumes and 10 chapters (the extant version is thought to have been completed around the 3rd century). He established 16 principles, including the means and objects of knowledge, but since much of the philosophical foundation was borrowed from the Vaisheshika school, the two schools were later fused together.

インドの思想家。別名アクシャパーダAkapāda、漢訳名は足目(そくもく)。インド六派哲学の一つであるニヤーヤ学派の開祖とされる。紀元前5、6世紀ころから発展してきた論証(ニヤーヤ)学を、正統バラモン主義の立場からまとめあげ、5篇(へん)10章よりなる『ニヤーヤ・スートラ』(現存のものは3世紀ころに完成したと思われる)を編んだと伝えられる。知識手段や知識対象をはじめとする16の原理をたてたが、その哲学的基礎は、多くはバイシェーシカ学派からの借りものであったため、後世、両学派の融合をみるに至った。 [宮元啓一 2018年5月21日] [参照項目] | | |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
