Leibniz regards a corporeal substance, which is composed of monads, as 'one substance' and tries to prove that it has a true unity. This position seems to be contradictionary to his Monadology. Therefore, many scholars have ignored Leibniz's stand that corporeal substance is 'one substance', or consider this only as a stand from his theory of substance in his early works, which has been discarded afterwards. This Research will show that Leibniz adheres to this position throughout his lifetime; that although Leibniz uses the concepts such as substantial form and substantial bond to explain his stand, but the concept of substancial bond doesn't fit in with his philosophical system; that to explain the unity of the corporeal substance, the concept of substancial form and the theory of preestablished harmony are sufficient; and that nevertheless the stand that the corporeal substance is 'one substance' inconsistent with the position that the monad is 'one substance'; and that if Leibniz abandons that stand, the theory of the corporeal substance is a good foundation of his panorganism.

This essay considers Leibniz-Clark correspondence on the nature of space and hole argument. The ontology of space had been debated under the name of substantivalism-relationism controversy. The debates between the two parties are concerned with the nature of existence of parts of space-time. Substantivalism claims that the point of space-time has existence analogous to that of material substance. Relationism argues that space-time should be understood as the framework of possible spatio-temporal relations between bodies. Although these two approaches attempt to respect theoretical context, it seems that the problems of these two interpretive schemes stems from the lack of understanding of the structure of space-time theories, especially how space-time is connected with the laws of motion. In order to appreciate the substance-relation controversy without deviating from the context of space-time theories, it is necessary then to capture how space-time theories are constituted. This essay offers the clear connection of ontology of space-time with present practices of theoretical physicists.

The ontological status of Newtonian space-time has been debated under the name of substantivalism-relationism controversy. The debates between the two parties are concerned with the nature of existence of space-time. Substantivalism maintains that the points of space-time have existence analogous to material substance. Relationism claims that space-time should be understood as the framework of possible spatio-temporal relations between bodies. Newtonian space is considered as a three dimensional entity in accordance with our geometric common sense. Yet given that the concept of motion is defined as the change of position throughout time, it is possible to interpret space-time as a 4 dimensional entity. In this essay, substantivalist-relationist debate is considered within the context of non-relativistic 4 dimensional space-time theory. This essay attempts to clarify the dispute over the ontology of space-time by elucidating the relationship between the ontology of space-time, motion, and space-time symmetry.

This study has investigated the factors that make a science teacher effective by analyzing students' perception of teacher knowledge required in enhancing their science learning. The basic components of teacher knowledge identified by previous researchers have been confirmed through Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Based on the findings of the EFA, the questionnaire has been further analyzed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) by means of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). In addition, the differences in students' perception on the identified factors of effectiveness have also been analyzed in terms of gender and achievement level. The findings of the EFA showed that five factors of science teacher effectiveness were identified; namely, substantive knowledge, syntactic knowledge, knowledge of students' understandings, knowledge of instructional strategies, and knowledge of assessment. These five components have been divided into two categories of teacher knowledge, SMK and PCK. What we found from the CFA was the respective high correlation between substantive and syntactic knowledge, knowledge of students' understanding and instructional strategies and the low correlation between substantive knowledge and knowledge of instructional strategies. Students perceived substantive knowledge as the most effective factor, knowledge of assessment as the least effective factor. Also, there have been considerable differences in students' perception by gender and achievement level. We proposed, based on the findings, that SMK and PCK need to be integrated into a coherent manner for the effective science teaching practice. This study provides some implications for science teacher professional development and the improvement of science teacher preparation program.

아인슈타인이 지난 1916년 발표한 일바상대론을 통해 처음으로 제시한 중력장의 실체를 찾는 작업이 프랑스와 이탈리아의 실험물리학자들에 의해 본격화됐다. 7월 23일 피사의 사탑으로 유명한 이탈리아 피사에서 수 킬로미터 떨어진 카시나 평원에서 두 나라의 물리학자들은 지난 1996년 착공해 최근 완성한 중력장 간섭계 VIGRO를 공개했다. 지금까지 누구도 시도하지 못했던 간섭계제작의 아이디어를 낸 지 10년만의 일이다. 프랑스와 이탈리아 정부가 공동으로 1억 5천만 유로를 들여 완성한 VIGRO는 앞으로 1년간의 시험가동 기간을 거친 뒤 본격적으로 우주에서 발생하는 중력장의 실체를 밝혀내게 된다.

In spite of various attempts to characterize the ontological status of space-time, Newtonian substantivalism and Leibnizian relationism, what is really at issue in the controversy between the two parties is by no means clear. This essay argues that from the perspective of space-time symmetries, classical space-time can be unambiguously classified as substantival space-time and relational space-time. The symmetries of space-time theories distinguish the invariant geometric relationships between events. The essential difference between the two space-times stems from whether or not there exists the affine structure that distinguishes the inertial trajectories of a given body.

실체 유물론과 인과 결정론이 개인의 자유와 동일성을 실질적으로 열어주려면 사건 원인 외에 행위자 원인의 여지를 허용해야 한다. 그 두 가지 원인은 법칙적 일반적 결정의 개념과 합리적 개성적 결정의 개념을 지니고 있다. 개성의 인과적 역할은 법칙화할 수 없는 물질성의 여지를 남긴다. 바로 그 가능성이 인간의 자유와 동일성의 실질적 복권의 가능성이다.

우리는 지식활동의 원천인 연구활동을 파악하기 위한 분류체계를 만들고자 하였다 그러나 지식활동분류와 관련된 이론체계가 정립된 것이 없어서 다양한 시가과 방법론을 검토한 후 이들을 체계화하며 새로운 방법론을 도출하였다. 이 논문은 바로 그 과정에서 이루어진 이론적인 작업을 정리한 것이다. 우리는 지식이라는 거대한 실체보다 새로운 지식을 추가하는 연구활동이 중요하다는 인식에 기반하였다. 또한 연구활동과 연구활동의 목적이 연계되고 학제연구라는 새로운 지적활동의 패턴이 자유자재로 반영되도록 하였다.

1. The traditional view of nature in oriental medicine originated with a horizontal relation between nature and human. But the Sasang Constitution Medicine is based on the thought that ethical value is due to nature and at the same time nature could be transformed by ethical inclination. 2. The Sasang Constitution Medicine is not only a clinical medicine, but also a nature-philosophical system which implies the korean general view of nature. 3. We must examine a thought critically, four seperated physical structure were indeed deterministic. A deterministic understanding is false, because it is based on the recipiency of western philosophical ontology without reflection. 4. Korean view of nature is not kept in the fixed structure, and then can be opened and transformed by personal doings (practical acts). It is important that Sasang medicine is the pathology centering on man which is embodiment of ethical judgements.

본 논문은 도시에 대한 새로운 인문학적 담론이 형성되고 도시의 이미지 개선을 위한 다양한 마케팅 전략 수립을 통한 방법론이 제시되고 실행되는 과정에 주목하고자 한다. 이와 같은 상황을 고려하여, 본 연구에서는 케빈 린치(Lynch, K)의 ‘실체적 이미지’의 도시이론을 통해 도시와 지역이 어떻게 ‘시간’과 ‘공간’의 기능으로서 작용하고, 도시 이미지 형성과 장소의 역할을 하고있는 미국 서부지역의 Santa Monica 도시의 ‘상징적 이미지’를 통해 어떻게 도시 기능이 유기적 관계가 형성되고 있는지 살펴보고자 한다.
