German philosopher. Born in Nizhniy Novgorod (now Gorky), the ancient capital of Imperial Russia, as the son of a high-ranking Russian bureaucrat of German descent. In 1867, he entered the Moscow Conservatory, where he studied piano under Nikolai Grigoryevich Rubinstein (1835-1881). He graduated with honors in 1872, but due to his naturally shy personality, he gave up on becoming a musician and went to Germany the following year in 1873 to study philosophy and literature at the University of Jena and the University of Heidelberg. In 1880, he received his doctorate with a thesis on F. Schelling's human freedom, and published "Hartmann's Philosophical System" in 1884 and "The Philosophy of Schopenhauer" in 1888. In 1893 (Meiji 26), he came to Japan as a philosophy teacher at the Faculty of Letters of the Imperial University (later the Faculty of Letters of the Imperial University of Tokyo). He lectured on philosophy subjects such as an introduction to philosophy, Greek philosophy, the history of medieval and early modern philosophy, the history of Christianity, and special lectures on Kant and Hegel, as well as Western classical languages, German language, and German literature, during which time he also taught piano at the Tokyo Music School. During his 21 years at Tokyo Imperial University, Koebel never interrupted his lectures by returning home on leave, and literally devoted himself to lecturing and mentoring students. In 1914, he left the teaching profession and attempted to return to Germany, but World War I made it impossible for him to do so, and he stayed at a friend's house in Yokohama for nine years, where he died. Filled with the sensibility and talent of an artist, Koeber was also the embodiment of the spirit of Greek freedom and Christian piety as a philosophy teacher, and he made a deep impression on the many students who attended his lectures, including Hatano Seiichi, Watsuji Tetsuro, Uozumi Kageo (Setsuro), and Tachibana Itoshige (1879-1939).

ドイツの哲学者。ドイツ系ロシア人の高級官僚の子として帝政ロシアの古都ニジニー・ノブゴロド(現、ゴーリキー市)に生まれる。1867年モスクワ音楽院に入学、ピアノをルビンシュテインNikolai Grigoryevich Rubinstein(1835―1881)に習った。1872年優秀な成績で同音楽院を卒業したが、生来の内気な性格から音楽家としてたつことを断念して、翌1873年ドイツに留学、イエナ大学、ハイデルベルク大学で哲学、文学を専攻した。1880年F・シェリングの人間的自由に関する論文で学位を得、1884年『ハルトマンの哲学体系』、1888年『ショーペンハウエルの哲学』を出版した。1893年(明治26)帝国大学文科大学(後の東京帝国大学文学部)の哲学教師として来日。哲学概論、ギリシア哲学、中世および近世哲学史、キリスト教史、カントやヘーゲルに関する特殊講義といった哲学科目と、西洋古典語、ドイツ語、ドイツ文学を講義し、その間、東京音楽学校でピアノの教授も行った。21年間の東京帝国大学在職中、ケーベルは賜暇帰国などで講義を中断することもなく、文字どおり一身を講義と学生指導に捧(ささ)げた。1914年教壇を去ってドイツへ帰国しようとしたが、第一次世界大戦で帰国不可能となり、横浜の友人宅に9年間寄寓(きぐう)したまま、同所で逝去した。芸術家の感性と資質に満ちたケーベルは、同時に哲学教師としてギリシア的自由の精神とキリスト教的敬虔(けいけん)の体現者として、彼の講筵(こうえん)に連なった波多野精一(はたのせいいち)、和辻哲郎(わつじてつろう)、魚住影雄(うおずみかげお)(折蘆(せつろ))、橘糸重(たちばないとえ)(1879―1939)ら多くの学生に深い感銘を与えた。 [田代和久 2018年8月21日] 『深田康算・久保勉訳『ケーベル博士小品集』(1919・岩波書店)』▽『久保勉訳『ケーベル博士小品集、続』(1923・岩波書店)』▽『久保勉訳『ケーベル博士小品集、続々』(1924・岩波書店)』▽『久保勉訳『ケーベル博士随筆集』(岩波文庫)』 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 |
