With these assumptions, we aim to outline a profile of the Japanese logonimic vocabulary, with a particular reference to verbal lexemes, by the classificatory frame of Silvestri (2000). Moreover, as the Japanese writing system integrates sillabaries and logograms, in this study we will deal with morpho-semantic structure of “words for words” starting from the graphemes of this language.

Approaching a vocabulary of “words for words” must go together with the culture in which a language is spoken so it should not be surprising that a country, with a long history of feudal political organization, as Japan, would show a specific logonimic lexicon for interactions between people of different social status. I logonimi nelle lingue e nel metalinguaggio” and can be definied, through the words of Tullio De Mauro, editor of the proceedings, as “Word or term concerning features, or parts, of texts and sentences and/or their realization or reception”. The metalinguistic term “logonim” (logonimo) has been officially recognized, as a metalinguistic word, during the conference of 1997 “Le parole per le parole. 489-517)Ībstract : This paper wants to offer a contribution to the research project AULIL (Atlante Universale dei Logonimi e delle Istanze Logonimiche - Universal Atlas of Logonims and Logonimic occurences), directed by Domenico Silvestri, though a study focused on Japanese language.

Sensei’s style of reasoning is primarily inductive, in contrast with that of other characters in Sōseki’s novel, and the present essay argues that Sensei’s style of reasoning is a primary cause of his suicide. Sōseki’s novel, too, contains a confession, namely Sensei’s testament, in which Sensei relates how he arrived at his belief that humanity is fundamentally selfish. This omission prepares the way for the underground man’s rejection of Liza at the climax of the second part of the novel.

The underground man’s argument may, as this essay shows, be analyzed in terms of logical truth-tables to demonstrate that, however thorough the underground man’s argument may appear, it does not consider the counterexample of selfless altruism. The confession of the underground man, the protagonist of Dostoevsky’s novel, includes an argument against the Chernyshevskian doctrine of rational egoism. Adapting a term coined by Ian Hacking, this essay analyzes certain of the styles of reasoning that appear in two novels, Fyodor Dostoevsky’s _Zapiski iz podpol’ya_ (Notes from Underground, 1864) and Natsume Sōseki’s _Kokoro_ (1914).
