This paper looks into Tsujimura Kōichi's notion of the "circumspective," which not only indicates a type of composition in traditional Chinese landscape painting but also a way of seeing and relating to the world: human being must not only see and think about the world surrounding starting from himself but think and see himself starting from the world around him. In so doing, this article seeks to problematize the relationship between human and nature as it has been conceived in certain artistic practices and philosophical works in Asia and the West. In particular, the issue of culturally-mediated nature and the historicity of landscape will be addressed through literary and pictorial examples from Japan.
Resumen:A través de las reflexiones de Raimon Panikkar acerca de la arquitectura y las de Nishida Kitarō acerca del lugar, este texto pone en cuestión la pretendida separación de lo interno y lo externo en relación con el espacio. Panikkar y Nishida comparten una comprensión similar de la espacialidad del ser, aun cuando sus estilos filosóficos más bien parecen diferir. Mientras que Panikkar sostiene que el espacio interior y el exterior son complementarios, parte de un pleno integrado, Nishida sostiene que las nociones de espacio interior y exterior surgen de la función divisoria de la conciencia egoica. Pese a ello, sus posturas coinciden en cuanto a los efectos que puede desencadenar un adecuado y positivo vínculo entre conciencia y acción, en cuanto a las acciones que impactan directamente la forma del mundo que habitamos.
