Mathematical Based Language Study
Sekinan Library
and
Sekinan Library was founded at Tachikawa, Tokyo in 1 April 1986.
Till March of that year I was a student of the post graduate course
for cultural sciences and also worked at a night course of a high school
for keeping daily life.
At university I studied the history of Buddhism of ancient Japan mainly
reading old Japanised Chinese writings while learning the history of
European linguistics typically represented by The Linguistic Circle of
Prague in 1920s.
Buddhism was taught from Prof. KAWASAKI Tsuneyuki and linguistics
was from Prof. CHINO Eiichi. In those days I had been concerned with the
presentation of historical text by Chinese characters which was not any
inflections in sentence, so usually called isolated language, which grammar
only being controlled by word order.
I wondered that what is word order, how the grammar changes in the
non-inflation words. All were in the utterly dark world because European
linguistics had not made up the developed isolated language like classical
Chinese. But in China especially in the era of Qing dynasty, many linguists
had studied Chinese classics using vast methods historically formed since
circa 500 B.C.
At March 1986, I determined that study theme was limited in the linguistic
study of ideogram like Chinese character, for the study of which a new
perspective would be appeared from our Oriental region still now using
ideogram like China and Japan. From April I started my study while
teaching modern and classical Chinese at Sekinan Library. At night
frequently being called as the lecturer of Buddhism and Chinese of civic
education. At that time the most interesting theme of the study was
ancient Chinese characters inscribed on oracle bones and tortoise shells,
which already showed the perfect system of ideogram and had been studied
in the Qing dynasty's linguists, in which I was deeply fascinated by
WANG Guowei's work Quantangjilin.
Over decade after, in Spring 2003, I wrote a manuscript for my study,
titled "Manuscript for Quantum Theory for Language". Continuing
this work, I could first written a paper on diagram focused on inherent
time in Chinese characters. The title was " On Time Property Inherent
in Characters" and its direct succession, "Quantum Theory for
Language " which was presented at a conference opened at Nara in
December 2003.
