I bring forward an argument for dismissal of methodological individualism as an adequate theory for understanding human action. I make use of Kashiwabata Tatsuya’s theoretical explication of selfsacrificial action propounded in his recent book, Jiko-Giman to Jiko-Gisei (Self-deception and Selfsacrifice), in order to produce the evidence for explanative insufficiency of personal intentional states for bringing about self-sacrificial decision making. Kashiwabata establishes that a self-sacrificial action of an individual can be regarded as rational only if it is assessed in terms of the shared intention among people who are engaged in a collective activity. An individual always has good reason not to take such an action as may carry a great loss to her. In reality, however, no one can avoid all the situations that could cause personal losses in the name of collectivity: one’s family, the community, or the nation. She would be entitled to say that her action be self-sacrificial if she were persuaded into doing something that was not good for her. She might not be considered as utterly irrational provided that she gave up the good thing for the sake of others. No one can deny this but the concept of rational action with personal utility cannot explain the rationality of such an action as this. The shared intention to promote some sharable good rationalizes an individual’s self-sacrificial decision making that cannot be rationalized by means of the individual’s personal utilities. As long as the act of self-sacrifice is to be placed at the high position in the list of virtuous acts, philosophers cannot take it for granted that methodological individualism is the correct way of explaining all the human actions.

El objetivo del proyecto de la Universidad de Nagoya era comprobar una hipótesis sobre el desarrollo arquitectónico del sitio. Se cree que en los lados este y sur de la Estructura B1-1 existían dos basamentos rectangulares enterrados por la Pirámide B1-1. Se realizaron los 3 Pozos (Pozo 15, 16 y 17) en el lado sur de la Estructura B1-1 para confirmar la hipótesis. En el Pozo 15 se encontró una ofrenda de un vaso cilíndrico con un cuenco polícromo, como tapadera. Posteriormente, sobre las dos vasijas colocaron una laja en la esquina sureste del Basamento Sur. Dentro del vaso cilíndrico se encontraron, 2 plaquetas de jade, 50 fragmentos pequeños de jade, varios huesos de animales, 1 fragmento de concha, 1 pedazo de caracol, una cantidad de mica y de pigmento rojo. Basado en los datos arqueológicos, podría presentarse la siguiente interpretación hipotética : Al renovar el Basamento Sur se realizó un rito en el que colocaron una ofrenda de dos vasijas. Este rito relacionado con la construcción podría estar ligado con la toma de posesión del trono. Con base en la información, podrían surgir dos posibilidades, que para la toma de posesión del nuevo gobernante, se construyó una nueva estructura, que cubría la vieja o que el nuevo gobernante tuvo que renovar la estructura para celebrar su coronación.

The metaphor of seal and its imprint has a long tradition from Antiquity to Middle Ages. This study aims to investigate into the relationship between this metaphor and medieval christian image theory and visuality. In this first part, we treat following themes: 1. imprint as a mean of mechanical reproduction, 2. imprint as epistemological model, 3. imprint as token of Christian, 4. model and copy.
